Second doctor saying my medication is causing digestive and stomach issues, psychiatrist refuse to listen TW : puke, blood
  • I think I am going to ask to change psychiatrist from within the hospital itself, ask the nurses. Once I got to see psychiatrist in emergency it costed me a lot but they were schoked the dose of my antidepressant I was on and that's why I had a hypomanic episode. So I definitely need a second opinion.

  • Am I the asshole for disclosing early to my date that I have bipolar disorder?
  • I am not making it my personality but thank you for the advice.

  • I feel bad upvoting this but this is a support upvote not an happy one. I am sorry you're going through this, it takes a strong person to survive all that. Are you younger than the general pop having heart attacks?

  • Thank you. I know a good doctor she's just not my GP, I think I'll take an appointment with her and try to explain to her that the emergency doctor from yesterday told me to stop my medication to see if one or several of them is causing gastrointestinal issues. I think she'd be open to it. I hope you're better since your surgery.

  • Second doctor saying my medication is causing digestive and stomach issues, psychiatrist refuse to listen TW : puke, blood

    It's been 2 years since I've had stomach issues, especially puking. 2 years ago I went to the ER and they didn't even care I went home with a prescription to check my liver but a doctor didn't even examine me. At the time I was smoking which I thought was the cause back then, but then I kept puking since I stopped (I am still cigarettes free, no vape, no nicotine, no weed, no anything) and feeling something weird in my stomach. My liver results came back okay. Then at my second go to the ER 1 year ago the doctor said I might have an ulcer because of the meds I take and go check with my GP to have an appointment I said to her my GP was brushing off my problems saying they came from my weight gain so she wrote a letter to him but : My GP didn't really care and brushed it off again and gave me anti reflux medication.

    I said that to my psychiatrist she pretended not to understand saying "well none of the medication I give you cause puking" (I am on a lot of meds)

    Yesterday since 3 days ago I was puking pink, signs of blood. I called the ER to know if it was an emergency or if I could wait for the December 4th, the appointment with my doctor. They told me to find a doctor today, which I did. He told me the blood is irritation since I've been puking a lot but the puking might come from my meds and I should stop them for a while to see if that's really the problem. He is the second doctor suggesting my meds are causing my gastrointestinal problems, I don't even know how to bring this up with my psychiatrist because she didn't listen to me the first time and I am sure she would be against stopping my meds for a while. The thing is in my country she is a part of a free mental health hospital and I can't afford to go to another psychiatrist. I don't know how to taper off healthily myself but man I am tired of this system where nobody takes me seriously.

    Pour les nouveaux arrivants, avez-vous dû paramétrer le français à la main pour voir les posts?
  • Je suis nouvelle et j'ai pas forcément eu besoin de changer la langue car je comprends l'anglais mais je pense que ça dépend déjà de quelle application tu utilises pour utiliser Lemmy? J'en sais pas plus désolée je suis encore un peu perdue moi-même sur Lemmy

  • Am I the asshole for disclosing early I have bipolar disorder to my date?
  • She just blocked me when I said it would be better for the both of us to try not to date lmao

  • Am I the asshole for disclosing early I have bipolar disorder to my date?
  • She mentions in her bio she's got several mental illnesses so I thought it was okay to be like "hey I struggle with bipolar too". She then said she wasn't willing to share her mental illnesses... Why put it up in her bio then? My bio doesn't mention my mental illnesses. But I am still upfront about it to people I start to feel a connection with.

  • Am I the asshole for disclosing early to my date that I have bipolar disorder?

    She told me I trauma dumped on her and I was looking to trauma bond. Which I think isn't true since I disclosed to other dates from the get-go I was bipolar because I am one of those who think it's better to tell someone right away then later when they get attached. Some people are just not okay dating with mental illnesses and that's okay. So I prefer to say it in advance.

    She said she is disabled too and won't be capable of taking care of me all the time, I have taken it badly because as I said to her I am not looking for a mother. She told she's got "nurse syndrom" which is basically in the context of romantic relationships, is a psychological phenomenon where an individual, often a woman, feels a compulsive need to "save" or "fix" their partner. I told her I find that infantilizing I do not want a mother or someone trying to save me, yes I am disabled but yes I can also take care of myself like a grown-up, I am not 6 years old looking for guidance. I said to her I do not feel comfortable pursuing the relationship. AITA for thinking she's the one showing red flags?

    Jai été shadowbanned de Reddit pour avoir demandé sur le sub de Korn si ma mauvaise expérience de concert avec eux était juste une soirée de fatigue où s'ils faisaient tous leurs concerts comme ça désormais. Je suis donc nouvelle sur Lemmy. De l'aide en français je vous en supplie?
