Oops I am so sorry to hear that you ahve been treated badly. WOuld a letter explaining things to them help?

Its a catch 22 on bringing your records. SOme docs can interpret that in a negative way and feel like they are being told what to do or that it makes you looked obsessed while others appreciate when you advocate for yourself.

Maybe you want to have them tucked away in your back pocket and judge how the meeting is going and bring them out or take the approach of being open minded and seeing what the new doc has to say without leading them with preset opinions.

I would make a list of five things you want to talk to them about to focus the conversation. I have found that more than five and I lose the doc's focus.

And at the end I would ask would you find it helpful if I had my records forwarded to you.

I dont know much about hyrocodone but you might want to post in medications forum and Mrsd will come by and help with her opinions. She's super smart

Good luck
