Hi Nick,
>How did you manage to get a new psychiatrist?
My last pdoc has been ill for months.
>...and was this a Consultant psychiatrist you saw?
It certainly was!
>Whereas the under-dogs always have to go and ask the consultant lol its like they have to gets his permission first... Have you ever come across that?
Yes, but only when I was in hospital a couple of years ago. As an outpatient, I've always seen a consultant. The thing I really hated about junior doctors is that they didn't know anything about me.
>Hmm..think of yourself as a diabetic who needs their insulin"..
Yes, they always tell you to 'keep taking your medication'. Even if it's making you worse.
Btw, I've never been to the hospital pharmacy at that hospital before. I was quite amused when my prescription was dispensed in a bag labelled PSYCHIATRIC PATIENT.
Kind regards,
Ed.
