thanks for the suggestion. The thing is, prior to this doctor I was referred to someone who had me try for different meds- all within a short period of time, all with horrible side-effects. The last one ended with me in the emergency room with Induced Parkinsonism! I needed a month of medical leave to recover from the withdrawal. So needless to say, I am a bit nervous about straying from someone who I trust so far. I will, although, inquire about getting tested as there is also a question of ADHD as well.
