It sounds like the doctor is wondering if he has a mood disorder. What happens if you write down all your questions and take them to the doctor appointment with you? Will the doctor answer them, or brush you off? Would she be more likely to answer them if you faxed them to her the day before so she could be prepared?
Oncei n a while, when limited by insurance and not getting answers from a doctor, I have simply stayed in the exam room after the doctor left. I tell the nurse I have questions that were not answered and I NEED the answers. One or two times the nurse got irritated, but mostly they try to answer the questions or they make the doctor come back. (They get you the answers faster if your kid is dis-assembling the exam room, ROFL!! But it is kinda mean to take a screwdriver with you, isn't it??)
This is just a strategy to try to get answers for you. You can also ask the pharmacist. Pharmacists can be a great ally in medication questions. Especially if the pharmacist has a PhD. It is one reason I get many of my prescriptions at the local Mom'N'Pop drug store. I know all the pharmacists, but one has been helping me at 4 locations over 20 years. He knows all my history and catches medications that I react to even if I forget!
So maybe you can ask a pharmacist more about this? Or even call the doctor's office and ask the nurse? All they can do is say NO, isn't it??
Anyway, I know this has been stressful. Take some time to treat yourself. Be gentle and loving to YOU!
