> JostThanks Jost,
In the past, he has told me to stick it out. Last time we adjusted the meds, he let me choose whether I wanted to increase the cymbalta from 60-90 mg. I said yes, and we did. He has also asked me what I expect to get out of the visit. One time I told him that I had a lot of anxiety. He said that the cymbalta should help with that, and that T should help with that even more. That T is doing the really heavy lifting. Meds just make T more effective.We'll see. I think throwing a llrrrpptantrum, (throwing myself prostrate on the floor, banging fists and such) would be quite memorable. What have I got to lose? I'm already diagnosed with a mental illness :) I'm not sure if it would be effective though.
Perhaps I'll just take a little nap on his couch in the middle of the appointment.zzzZZZzzzZZZ <grin>
