Going To The Docs - With A List!
44 Answers
I don't often go to the doctors. I have a bit of a phobia (white coat syndrome apparently) and prefer to ask on AB and then self medicate. I have been just recently, but generally I tend not to.
Anyway, I've got myself an appointment for this afternoon. It's a 'sit and wait', unfortunately, but I really do need to go and whilst I've plucked up the courage, I shall go.
My question is, do you think it's OK to take a little list with me, or do you think he'll just think I'm a crazy hypochondriac? It's not major stuff, but there are about 5 different things.
Would you think this is alright, or should I just deal with one at a time, on different appointments?

I would definitely take in a list - and write down what the GP says/ recommends about different ailments or recommended treatments or drug names etc...

Am away to bed myself -just hope you will get a good counsellor (which it probably will be) have been there and bought the T-shirt - they just let you talk it out and put little input in - so be warned - you do all the talking and it is a good release. I remember the last counsellor I went to and in the middle of him and I talking I was saying I wanted to be released from work - God he said the state you're in I would release you right away. It took me another two years to get out of work after 37 years. I did do my bit. Good luck anyway no matter what way it goes. I do ramble don't I?
