Nerves

Feb 23, 2011 09:49

A little nervous for my appointment with the next psychiatrist at 12:30. Some hopeful excitement (that maybe she can tweak things so I feel better soon; a fresh perspective might help), but nervous that we might not click or whatnot. Sometimes it's hard to find the right doctor; I am a bit worried I may have to look for another one if this doesn't feel right. I have a million questions, worries, and concerns. I feel like a dork, but I actually made up a list so I don't forget to mention anything critical during the appointment. Some of it is kind of important (like the main medication I take has been given to me as samples by the last doctor for the past year - it was an insurance exclusion for me. If this doctor can't do the same, I need to find a new medication). Some of it is just more practical (like if I'm really struggling after-hours, am I supposed to call the office to speak with an on-call doctor, or am I supposed to go straight to the ER?). Some of it is just super relevant to my current situation (like can this doctor write me a note releasing me to go back to work, or do I need to make sure I go back before my current doctor closes her practice next month?). And whatnot. There is more, but as you can see, there is just a lot I need to find out today. I am worried that it will be hard to fit into the 45 minute appointment.
