The first visit is usually more to get to know each other than anything. To discuss what is bothering you, and maybe start some meds.

Hi Pierro,
Yeah, the first meeting is often pretty low-key, though it's still easy to be triggered by it given the build-up. Do you have someone you can talk with about it afterwards? I saw a p-doc two weeks ago for the first time and she was super friendly and kind. She just asked me a series of questions about my symptoms, and then we discussed treatment options. It was a good experience. Good luck, RJ |
