Sorry for my ignorance, but what is a Dx?-john
> Well I think I certainly agree with what you are saying. It certainly makes sense, the best have the most appointments. Hadn't thought of asking a general doc. about what pdoc to go to, but then again I don't like my general doc either so maybe it wouldn't be the best idea (his laziness and belief that 18 yr olds can't have serious medical problems almost cost me my life).

> I'm really hoping I don't have to resort to going for a long off appointment. As you realize from my post, the only reason I'm doing this is so I have a legal prescription. I could have some selegiline and parnate and modafinil and 1000 other drugs at my door in 2 weeks, and I am a rather impatient person, especially when I know what works, so I'm very hopeful that I don't have to do much searching to find docs that are somewhat openminded. I can't imagine having to go to several different docs to get what I know works, but given my present circumstances, it is probably in my best interest to not order anything without a doctors prescription for a while. Anyway, I am planning on going with your suggestion I believe, laying low with drug experiences for a while. I don't see it as dishonest, it's just witholding certain information until a time when it would be more acceptable for the doctor to know.
