Follow up appointment with GP at local clinic went okay. I was weighed and measured, and he is sending me for blood tests. He's fine with me staying on 50 mg of Seroquel for now, given my horrible experience with 100 mg.

I told him the place he sent me to last Friday could not refer me to a pdoc, to which he responded: "bull" ...not me, but them. He told me that every patient he tries to refer to a psychiatrist ,the request bounces back and he's told to send his patients to walk-in counselling downtown for the pdoc referral Ugh! So he had me fill out a bunch of questionnaires in hopes that if he submitted them I'd get my pdoc referral. Regardless of what route actually works the wait for a pdoc is super long. So I'm grateful this local GP is helping me out in the meantime.

Wish me luck with the fasting blood test tomorrow, I'm okay delaying breakfast, but the thought of going out into the world without my morning cup of tea ... yikes!
