As above. Not sure what to do.
Basically, he's worried I have an eating disorder and doesn't think I've been honest with our GP, which I actually have been. He wants to talk to her himself because of this and thinks if it comes from him she'll suddenly realise I have a problem. Which I doubt, since he can't say much different than I have. I only went because everyone's been nagging at me. So if I give him written consent for him to talk to her about me, does that also give him the right to make decisions regarding my healthcare? Or is it simply just consent to talk to her and nothing more? Is this sensible? I want him to stop worrying so if this puts his mind at ease that's great, but I don't want this creating trouble for me. Thanks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I am unclear why he needs that consent - he can just send a letter to the GP. The release is needed for him to talk to her two-way ie. getting info OUT of her about you. For incoming information, he does not need a release. I do see his point in having a two-way (or, as Nature suggested, even a three-way) conversation with her and you in the office, but no, it would not give him any rights to direct your care. A completely different document called Advanced Healthcare directive is signed, probably in the presence of a neutral 3rd party witness, to actually give someone the right to make healthcare decisions for you. Your H is not asking for that. He is worried about you and wants to have an input - that is all. I also see Nature's point in that you would be transparent and he probably would both appreciate it and be assured by it. |

Thank you
![]() He wants to talk to her, which is fine, but for some reason they seem to want my consent for that as well. I suppose because they've assumed he wants information from her as well, he might not have made that clear, or maybe he does want that as well. I'm happy for him to talk to her if it makes him happier. I just didn't want decisions being taken out of my hands. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
