Hi,
This is my first time checking into a Friday feast and now I feel shy I had some tuna for dinner - how exciting! I just wasn't all that hungry. @Shaz51 I hope you don't mind me asking, but I'm just curious...what is it like for you having your GP ask your psych about showing you the report? I very much live by the motto of "nothing about me, without me" and I can't imagine having a healthcare professional who refused (or was even hesitant) to show me a report.

Hi @utopia
It is from the medication he is on
before he was a very light sleeper , and overthinking would keep him awake for hours
but now with his meds , he sleeps all night and still wakes up very tired
it must be frustrating for you at times. -- yes the other night I could not swallow, I was thinking I would have to ring the ambulance as I can`t drive and it is so hard to wake him up

Welcome to the feast at @Phoenix_Rising, pull up a chair, and make yourself at home. If you're not hungry and I can make you a drink

I can't imagine having a healthcare professional who refused (or was even hesitant) to show me a report. -- I agree with you totally
My husband who has MI has cancelled psych and healthcare professional help , so we are on our own , our last report was august 2015
