My previous GP only changed meds as well, but my new Doc is being very aggressive and proactive. I'm happy that I'm not going to have to ween myself off my psych meds. Thanks for the support and feedback!

*sigh* yes...the "taking more pills to help stop side effects from pills."
I was taking a water pill, too, but was getting up 5 times/night to pee. Needless to say, the sleep interruptions are not helpful for bipolar disorder.
My GP stopped the water pill and increased my Amlodipine dose. x fingers crossed x
It is
great that your current doc is being proactive!
