Hi Matt,
I'm so glad you got evaluated. I'm sorry that your mom was there, and that they even let her in for a short while. You NEED to get away from her, she is poison! I do hope the new p-doc can help you though, and I hope someone will do something about your mom. Maybe have her evaluated, maybe some time in that hosp. is what she needs - seriously, it sounds like she has some real problems, and like she needs some meds to calm her down and get her off your back.
Anyway, I'm glad you went. You know better than I do, because it's you who feels it, but I do think that SEVERE anxiety, esp. when combined with living with someone like your mom, can make you feel much more ill than you might otherwise be in more ideal circumstances. I'm sure you feel like you have no control, and you feel very threatened by your mom. If you weren't in that environment, and if you didn't have your mom constantly in your head, I"m sure you'd feel healthier than you do now.
Good luck!
Jazzy
