Believe it or not, I feel like he is refusing to write me an Rx for it simply because it was my idea to go on it. When he finally returned my calls (after 3 days) he was like, "you think you can go online and learn all about a medication and then tell me what to prescribe...it doesn't work that way." I reminded him that I have already tried a lot of medications--Lexapro, Zoloft, Paxil, Remeron, Serzone, Wellbutrin, Prozac...he said, "That's not really that many medications..." I don't understand him, I was so sad when he said he wouldn't prescribe it for me--Cymbalta sounds like it might work for me and I feel hopeful about it. Now I am making phonecalls trying to find a new dr, but u know how it can be, the doctor isn't taking new patients at this time...etc.
