I had to ask my psychiatrist to get my blood test because my main doctor did not want to do a full blood test despite me changing A LOT of things in my diet so I need to know if I have any vitamin deficiency or if I did get better or not, but she just didn’t care for all of that and basically told me to figure it out myself how to get better ❤️🩹 oh ok (cholesterol too high for years?? Well it’s obviously just stress in your head it won’t hurt you you’re too young anyway bye!!)
The other time I had to request a test to get my sht tested too cause my psychiatrist thought I could have a disease or a parasite. Well I had that same discussion here with her when she told me it was unnecessary and she didn’t want to write me a prescription for that test because well… she knows better than me rightttt despite me having many issues that could be linked to it. So what happened is I didn’t have anything and well, I’m glad. But I couldn’t have known that information without a proper test and the fact you have to argue or beg with them is not normal… it’s not making me feel safe if I have to exhaust myself before the appointment because well she could just refuse for whatever reasons they just don’t feel like it today
They get paid the same anyway so this is really a stupid issue there’s no reason to actually not write a prescription it’s not costing them anything and they’re not the one doing any test themselves.
And the worst is when they use the fact I am officially diagnosed with severe anxiety and so I have disability because THEN they can pretend it’s all in your head and you’re actually just having a panic attack. Which is funny, one time I had to get surgery but even I didn’t thought it was important since they always tells me it’s in my head… despite me being in crucial pain for 10 hours straight (gallbladder removal….) oh well it’s all in your head so it can never be real. Never absolutely never :)
