Thank you so much for reframing that conversation for me, Dinah! I can't tell you how much easier it is for me to think of this in terms of making it easier for the docs rather than requesting special treatment because I'm nuts.
So you think I can just say something like these exams are causing me a lot of anxiety and I think it would be better for both of us if I had medication beforehand? Do you mind telling me what medication you've used for anxiety with medical stuff? My T actually suggested the knocking-out drug that they use for a colonoscopy. But I would rather take something less than that if it will work.
