I agree with the general consensus on the thread that you are probably feeling the effects of needing medication. I know that you have so many problems associated with ADs not the least of which is a lack of confidence in your current pdoc. He really does not sound like the right fit for you.
I also know that the cost of an initial consultation with yet another pdoc is an obstacle... but you are SO worth the investment. I feel that part of what is keeping you from finding a more sympathetic doctor is that you don't really think you deserve better care, and that this desperate situation is your lot. But if you took your treasured vehicle to a mechanic who told you to keep driving the car until it *really* breaks, you'd be pretty quick in finding another mechanic with more sense!
Get another mechanic for your self, Racer. There are good pdocs out there. Ones that don't become uptight and close minded by having patients question and challenge their recommendations - that's a matter of personal style.
