Hi all, first time poster. I'm seriously second guessing myself after being honest with a PA for an online ketamine program today. I was upfront about my glaucoma along with the eyedrops I take daily.. Everything went well until she asked about my glaucoma and I was upfront. My pressure was only a little high to begin with and my pressure has dropped since I take the drops religiously. Otherwise she said I would be an excellent candidate. So I guess my question is: Is it possible to be too 'honest'? I have zero concerns about my glaucoma if I take ketamine, but I have a lot of concern if I can't find relief from this nightmare. I've been seeing a PSDoc for about 17 years now with depression. We've been playing medication roulette every 6 months all this time and honestly, it sucks.
 
Yea unfortunately sometimes you have to play up your symptoms to be taken seriously. It’s fucked but it’s how some health professionals operate. If you aren’t damn near falling apart you aren’t sick enough. We often downplay our own problems too because that’s just what society expects. All this leads to under treatment.

I am never honest with my doctors usually. I have chronic pain but I've had to do alot of lying and hiding mental conditions from them. I also have just continued to fill scripts when I weaned down off pills.

There is no honor in the pain game anymore. Get yours at all costs.

Hi, thanks for the reply! In this case, I 'overshared' that I had glaucoma to begin with because it is considered a contraindication for receiving the treatment. The depression is bad right now and I hope that I stressed to her 1. the glaucoma has been in control for years and years, I only mentioned it to be completely honest and 2.That currently, the depression is likely to me more detrimental to my health right now than my glaucoma is.

I have never been able to seek treatment for depression because i have a chronic pain condition and I would never he prescribed narcotics again if I had a single psychological illness on my record.

Many states have employed this awful algorithm program that ranks your "probability" of being a drug addicts. If your score is too high you'll never get opioids even during a trauma in the ER.

Things that raise your score include mental illness, criminal record, age, filling a legit script at a different pharmacy than normal, visiting more than one doctor (yes seeing multiple specialists for unrelated or the same disease would classify you as Dr. Shopping); your sex; your race; low education level reached; your address (poor neighborhoods dont get prescriptions).

It violates the ADA (Americans with disabilities act). But opioids bad and it's Florida so they implemented it.

I know Florida uses this evil database. It's the most discriminatory amd unjust things I've ever witnessed in medicine. So glad I left that shithole it's on its way to becoming on the level of Alabama and Mississippi.

Whoever profited and owns the company of that program should be executed on death row.

They are profiting off the suffering of millions of innocent people and causing a wave of suicides and fent ODs among the chronically ill.

i get more blown away all the time, i am really new to going to the doctors or getting any help of any kind all and all, i was wanting this pregabalin while back, and doc said no, i didnt say anything but ok ty, was kind miffed he didnt ask to see me or what my issue was, but in heart im glad i dont have it, ill deal with numb toes, one foots a lil better already, but its so wild who they will give medication to and who they will not, im seeing such suffering, but i read forums and yeah thank goodness, learning of xanax and pregabalin, saw a trippy documentary the other day saw your avatar, so didnt know that was oxy
 
Its not evil imo just unlogical.

When you went through a psychosis you don't get anti-psychotic's at request just in case of. Recently I went to my dr. for my sleeping disorder. And what did I get an anti-psychotic. I also asked for a form of dosage of Valproic Acid I didn't need to break as the tab's are not suited for that. And he refused to prescribe the same dose in a diff form, as to not sit in the other dr's chair?
No change of dosage, just the form supplied had to be changed.
