I still have to pick it up.
I wonder if MY PCP could extend my time off longer, at least till it warms up a little more.
I may not even list this doctor from yesterday on on the review form.

Why was such a note even written? For your employer to hold your job open?
I tried explaining this before, but you didn't seem to understand. I'll use the example of Workers Comp in my state--a doctor signs off for continuing temporary disability every 30 to 60 days. It doesn't mean you'll be well enough to return to work at the end of that period, it means you go back to the doctor at that point to evaluate if your condition has improved enough to return to work. He might hope the dosage increase will help improve your condition, but there is no way to guarantee that.
You CAN"T pick and choose what you tell SS on the CDR. Doing so could be considered fraudulent. If SS requests your medical record and you've left off the visit to this doctor, your credibility will be toast.
