I had an incident last year where I was hospitalized in a psychaitric hospital for a month. The doctors there said that the reason I became "manic" was because of the nardil I was taking for which I know thats not true because I was taking a lot of illegal drugs.The nardil was working. My pdoc has agreed to put me back on nardil but only at a very low dosage. Im very exited and hopefull that this low dose of nardil augmented by the lithium will work for defeating depression and sa. But u can never put all ur eggs in one basket so I have a couple of question.
Do most psychiatrists ask for medical records? And if so does he/she access them on his/her computer or do I have to obtain them for him.
Can they access them without ur permision?
Would my medical records show that the doctors though the reason I was hospitalized was because of the nardil?If not would he/she ask to speak to those doctors.
If I deny a psychiatrist to see my medical records will he/she refuse me as a patient?
I just want my life back how it was when I was on Nardil, even if it means taking chances with other shrinks to get nardil without telling them wat happened to me, is this possible? I have been sufferring emensly for the past 6-7 months and nothings seems to be working out.I have been withdrawn from people because of the sa and am losing relationships with people that I love and value deeply. They dont understand and just get angry with me. No one seems to want to believe just how much this drug has helped my life.It truely allows me to be me. this whole situation is so frustrating.But still I keep my faith in God and myself that things will get better. PLEASE GUYS HELP ME!
