still no diagnosis.. but no more zoloft-now celexa
Question:
I went to the head doc today and they still after 3 sessions will not give me any other diagnosis than severe OCD.. and something else - but they never tell me what the something else may be. They had me on zoloft but it made me clench my jaw and I got really bad headaches.. so no more of that.. but celexa instead.. they want to try me on other meds too.. but said they will go over that next visit.. they want to try a bunch of different meds in order to diagnose me.. they say if I respond to certain ones then it will rule out certain disorders .. there is something wrong with that.. the are doing it backwards.. shouldnt you diagnose then treat!? I have to buy a stupid refrigerator.. I am moving and when I paid the deposit and looked over the house, it had one.. it doesnt now, I looked over my paperwork and they list every appliance BUT that.. so I cant argue it.. usually when they have an appliance IN the house when you look at it to rent, unless they tell you otherwise it stays!! I am bent about it. oh well.. AND. I have to move all by myself! no one, including my boyfriend who is moving with me, will help me. AND I have to watch my 6 month old son while I pack and move AND I hava a splinter

Response:
Moving is last on my list of things I’m able to do by myself. Getting a high paying job would probably tie on that same list. Those doctors are jerkin’ you around with the meds Kim.

Indeed you should, but it is certainly true that you learn things from the response to medication. And the sad fact is that these diagnoses are difficult and often wrong, with lots of trial and error unavoidable. — Nom dePlume, Ph.D. Why, yes, in fact, I am a rocket scientist.
