For several years, I have relied on my MD to help me with meds for depression and anxiety. I have tried Prozac and now am on Zoloft. I talked to him about my anxiety and panic, and he added Buspar. When I was in his office a couple of weeks ago, I told him I was not getting much help from the Buspar, should I increase the dose. I wrote here before that his reply was there are not enough drugs in the world to help me. I have always been concerned about all of my prescriptions for cholesterol, blood pressure, depression, etc might be fighting each other, or giving side effects such as nausea and sleeplessness. I wanted to find a Doc to go over all my meds and help me understand what I am taking. A psychiatrist would be a logical choice, however most had a 60 to 90 day waiting period. Here is where the perseverance comes in, today I found a psychiatrist with a 30 day wait. And she is in my insurance network. Hooray.
