Why do doctors not prescribe PHARMACOGENOMICS (psychiatric drugs) tests for their patients?
I have consulted a couple of psychiatrists ON&OFF. I questioned a few but they did not seem convinced about this test.
I have suffered terribly by the side-effects of psychotropic drugs. I am quite skeptical & scared now to go for the TRAIL & ERROR of the medication treatment. For most people it works & for a few like me they have to suffer badly & it seems hard to find that one drug which will work.
Respected Doctors,
Diagnosed with Bipolar 1 disorder. Prescribed Divaa and Oxetol by two different doctors. Pls guide as to which one is better and can be taken for long term.
Thank you and regards to all.
My aunt is suffering from mild to moderate dementia I have consulted a psychiatrist that has suggested to do an MRI brain for dementia apart from the MRI brain are there any dementia related tests as well that I should do or MRI brain would be sufficient
My daughter Aparajita,who has just completed her B. Com, complains having unclear evacuation and abdominal pain sometimes. All her pathological reports, ultrasound are normal. We have consulted Physian also, who okayed everything checking all the body parameters. She is an intelligent student. But anytime when there is tendency of flatulence and abdominal pain, she becomes sad and negative. We are regularly trying to make her positive.
She wish to do MBA, but she is losing confidence that everything will not be normal when she may stay away from home for study.
Please prescribe medication and necessary advice.
