Like I said, mostly I think it is funny. I just don't know what happens when I have my social security renewal and they see a different diagnosis. But my pdoc will fix it so my primary is bipolar and since she's the director of residency my resident may hear about it. Mostly though I just think it was a handwritten typo. I'm sure nothing has changed.

I want to get my hands on the discharge stuff. I used to get a paper saying my diagnosis, days I was there, etc. Now they fax all that to my therapist along with my evaluation reports and who knows what all. I suppose I could ask him to see it but it's probably healthier not to. So many people will have been documenting my "refusal to come to group" or "sleeping through group" because they didn't know I was ok to skip and that I did sleep a lot but that was intentional, etc. The clinical staff knew but I'm not sure the techs did.but its over and probably not much worse than any other time.

And again, I'm laughing, not worrying about this. I want it fixed if it is in the computer as a main diagnosis but Know how to do that. So it's just funny think of going back that many years before I was diagnosed. It also just shows the resident still needs to hone his skills which I'm sure takes years of practice, just as it did for me in my job.
