My pdoc will go to her boss and bring him in and give a second opinion on the spot.

I also have a second pdoc who communicates with my original pdoc bc i felt i was over medicated and they talk on the phone about different options for me.

As far as therapists, i started with 3 and slowly ended with 2 of them when i felt they werent helping as much as the 3rd. I tried one who does talk therapy, one who does cbt and one that does bdt to see which works for me. Dbt works best. I told the other two im trying dbt for a while and if it doesnt work out im welcome back to each of them.

No problem with getting another input. I think my pdoc knew me too well, seeing me every week for months and wasnt able to see the subtle changes that a third party could point out. My big team is awesome! Im glad my family pushed me to seek outisde opinions.

Plus my original pdoc never ordered blood tests, the first thing my second pdoc did was order blood tests and found i have hypothyroid, i thought i was getting depressed. Turns put my low energy was anemia and low thyroid.

Good luck!
