Hi Ksvt. If I were you, I would take this opportunity to interview this new pdoc--I would not assume they he/she will be it. This can be a consultation. Now, while your old pdoc is still around, should be the time you are interviewing others. You can be open about your question as to your commitment to change drugs, as well as the fact that you're not doing well. See what direction this new doc would go in IF she/he was your doctor. You really have nothing to lose. And you gain the possiblity of receiving a new point of view as well as deciding if this the pdoc you want to work with next.
btw, maybe your therapist didn't tell you because she felt it was appropriate for the pdoc, who is retiring, to break the news.I really think you should go. Shellie
