Hi - have a look at FAQ’s there may be a post on there but l’m not 100% sure…..

You need to write down your history in bullet points - dates & doses etc - he should be asking you questions to gain a full history so it’s good to have answers/history to hand. Not pages & pages but a comprehensive history…..

Good Luck

Haha. I will have ten minutes and they never seem to review your case. I have four main points and hopefully, we can discuss them. Thanks very much for your help. I will read the 8th Cranial Nerve research. Really appreciate it.
