Ok, new question.

10. How would you feel if somebody offered info on a different dx than that of which you have been given by a qualified pdoc, with them knowing what your dx is?

Honestly...wouldn't bother me. They may see something that hubby's doc hadn't seen or we hadn't thought of.

A family friend's husband was diagnosed with severe depression....several years later they are thinking it may be bipolar disorder. Their lives could have been so much better so much earlier had someone brought this up to them and suggested they speak to the doc about this sooner.

I think it's a personal thing honestly. Docs don't know it all...but I have no problem asking my hubby's doc(s) about dx's we've heard about that sound similar. Then they can rule those disorders out and I don't worry about them.

But thats just me.
