I finally got an appt to see a new pdoc; one that I actually feel hopeful about. Do you guys think it's too whacky to bring the list of meds that I've been on with notations on the ones that were so bad that I can't try them again? I also have a list w/bullet points of my past history, past dx's and current meds and dx.
I feel like time is limited. I know the main things that he is going to need to know and want to know and I'd like to speed up the time it takes to get through that. I also know that I can tend to forget things and if it's written out I feel like I'm making sure nothing gets overlooked.
My question is does anyone else do that when seeing a new doc? I don't want to seem like I'm such a nut that I've been through a million different doctors or that I'm just telling him what I "want" him to hear and I'm kind of afraid it will come across that way. Any thoughts?
