i finally called tdoc yesterday and much to my relief got her voice mail. left my check in message and hung up. i didn't hear back from her last night so i figured i was in the clear. ok, maybe not 'figured' but hoped.


she called me back a little while ago. and as it stands right now, i have to go see her today. i told her a little bit of the past few days on the phone. i told her about the si on thursday and not sleeping.


she basically told me that i could come in and see her or she could exert her authority to ensure my safety. doesn't take an einstein to figure out that one. i have an appt with her this afternoon. i just hope she lets me go home afterwards. i don't know how all that works. i know she once told me about it when i was having an issue concerning someone else who was 'on the edge.' and she said that all it would take is a phone call from her to have this person escorted out by the p.d. and taken to the hospital for the 72 hour hold.


i wish i hadn't signed that blasted contract, because i'm in violation of it and she knows it.


i've also called pdoc per her instruction. she thinks my seroquel may need to be upped again. my 'quit' from smoking was totally blown out of the water with all this stuff, and my mind is racing with really bad thoughts and i'm not sleeping. so i'm waiting to hear back from him too.


just when i think i might be able to unload some of these meds, the bottom drops out and instead of getting unloaded, some if not all get increased. i so hate this!

Traci,

I am glad your tdoc called you back and you were able to be up front with her about your situation. I really do hope she is able to help you feel better. Please know we are all always here for you. I know what you mean about med changes and dosage adjustments. It can all be a pain and when you are going through it it is frustrating, but it will get better. Hang in there.
