Hi stargazer,
You're starting to sound like me. That's not good.
I've been through it all too, including ECT (7 treatments out of 8, anxiety cut it short). I don't know what to do either.
However, I picked up on what your pdoc said about a referral. It's your choice, but if I had the option I'd do it. The advantage of the referral is that you don't have to go shopping around for a pdoc yourself.
Provided, of course, the new pdoc doesn't do things the same way your current one does. I'm assuming your current pdoc is smart enough to know that sending you into the same treatment under a different person won't accomplish anything.
RE "stargazer": is that star as in celebrity, or star as in Regulus? I ask because I have a degree in Astronomy.
BTW "Reggie" is short for "Regulus".
Later,
Reggie BoStar
