to both: I don't have a primary care, which is what I thought I was refering too by saying the word PDOC that what I thougth it always meant..lol But, for right now my pain specialist has been acting as my PCP, when I was sick he took me in the hosiptal under his supervision, he also refered me to doctors before, I just live far from him, so I don't always see the doctors he suggest for me, but as a matter of controlling all my medication he has expressed conceren about me and told me he does not think I should go on a MAOI but his collegue was the one who recommended me a MAOI while I was under the hospital care with him. So, regarding psychatric medicine I don't think he cares, or is allowed to tell me no, because that is not his speciality. Like he told me he hates xanax before, and gives me volume because he thinks its way less addicting. But I disagree because I take a benzo only twice a week and need to take one that get eliminated from my system quickly like xanax, but he would never ever put me on xanax because he hates it, so I go to a psych for that.
About my hepatits I don't care to tell you I am a open book. It is the doctors who I sometimes care to tell, because this always results at them looking at me as a drug abuser, which has resulted in them either taking away or not giving me benzo's and stimulants, not because my current behavior, but because there perception of people with hepatits.
To tell you the truth I don't know how I got it, it may be from drugs as I was a drug user. When I went to the hospital he was giving started me on bupe, and his collegue recommened that I take a MAOI. That is why I don't think he should be upset that I am taking Nardil with bupe, and don't believe it is that toxic too my liver, as all antidepressant have some liver issues. Also, I was recommened this antideprssant because I dont respond well to other antid's and I am not allowed to get hepatitis treatment until my depression, and other psychatrist ailments are under control. My goals is that by taking this I will be able to get treatment and be cured, I hope the nardil works better than the adderal because that was a great antidepressant. I have only had hepatitis for two years so my liver is not bad off, and I dont think I have any immune issues. I am now clean and am involved in a internet recovery group called smartrecovery, which is based on CBT. I also do my own CBT, I use the ANT technique that was popularized by Dr. Daniel Amen, wheras the CBT smart uses is REBT or rationtional emotive behavorial therapy made popular by dr. albert ellis, the pioneer of cbt.
Anyways, about the topic, has anyone visited that page I recommened the one where the guy who blog about suboxone, is an ex doc in the or and junkie, turned suboxone users and psychatrist. Its a pretty entertaining blog.
