> Really? Well that makes me a little discouraged and depressed. I like to think there's hope for my future. Possibly soon. There's no way I'm going to make it past August without help. :(
Oh please, don't let what I said discourage you from asking. That is just the attitude I have encountered and then generalized which may or may not be accurate. It sure doesn't hurt to ask and you could take info from the internet to help plead your case. You could assure hiim that you know which drugs are forbidden and that on the 6mg you don't even need to watch the diet. (I will be finding out it that is true for the 9mg as I suspect you don't need to watch diet on that dose either). Some people go to psychiatric nurse practioners who are usually pretty up to speed on things too. Do you have other dr.'s you could appeal to if your gp turns you down?donna
