Is it unreasonable to ask my t to talk to a pdoc? I'm considering trying medication but I'm worried about being able to explain myself clearly enough to the pdoc, someone I don't know or trust. I thought if my t consulted with them it would help them understand what's going on better. But I don't know how to ask my t that. My t said he would help me find one but I don't know if that's were his involvement stops or not.

I'm worried he would say no.

I think most T's are open to working with other providers. When I had a T and a pdoc, they always wanted to communicate to make sure they were on the same page. Even when switching T's, my previous T has always been open to contacting new T to help with continuity.
In the event that T says no, maybe he could help you write down talking points for your visit with the pdoc? |

I'd ask him ... what makes you think he would say no?

It's not something we've ever talked about before. I don't know what he's willing to do. He's never offered. I don't think I could handle him saying no Id probably quit.

I think your online T might be willing to work with a PDoc after you get started on meds, help report his opinion of how they're working but I don't think he can do the preliminary appointment for you, tell the PDoc what you want, are experiencing, etc. Maybe work with your online T to write out what you could say at an appointment before you make one?
