[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 136810, member: 1233"] Have you thought about going to the dr WITH him?? My husband was really really depressed a while ago. After he cancelled 2 doctor appts, and went to one saying only that he had a sinus infection, I insisted on going with him. He griped that I didn't trust him to even see the doctor on his own. I agreed with him. We had talked about the problems (similar to yours), he had agreed to seek help. I went, talked to the doctor and asked for some bloodwork (husband had skipped some stuff that age-wise should have been done, then switched docs and said it was done already). Not only was husband depressed, he had low testosterone. This is a fairly common problem as men get into their late 40's and up. The difference from the added testosterone was amazing. Now my husband knows that I will go with him. If he wants to go alone, then he MUST talk to the doctor honestly, and bring up things that I feel are issues. I bring things up to my doctor when husband thinks they are issues, so it is fair play. I am sorry things are so rough. Hugs, Susie [/QUOTE]
