If I like her, I will be making the break with my current p-doc.

I am nervous.

BNLsMOM. I think it's natural to be nervous. I get nervous every time before a P-doc visit--and that's not even new! Now I am seeking a rec from her to get a T-doc. Even *more* nervous about that(!)
It will be fine. Hope it is a great match! When are you going so I can send good thoughts your way at just the right time?

Good appointment. We are going to try Lamictal. Starting with a very small dose every other night. I'll go back in two weeks to let her know if I am tolerating it, and then we'll either use it to augment my trileptal, or switch to it completely.

She agrees with a bipolar diagnosis, but doesn't know yet if it is 1 or 2, and she says I have a little bit of ADHD thrown in for good measure.
