Default A question about PDoc's authority

Waves put up a thread about her pdoc advising against travel and that reminded me of something my pdoc said to me when I was still manic. One of the meds he prescribed for me was 200 mg of seroquel twice a day and it was incapacitating me. And the pdoc said that's really what he wanted giving the stuff that I had so recently done

But my wife and I both knew that I was back to my senses, even though my motor was still running some., I was freely admitting the craziness of my actions and I was the first to admit that I was done with that. Of course this was the visit where the pdoc told me I was irrellevant

So my wife and I were both trying to do away with that morning dose so that I could get some things done around the house. Some people might love to be drunk ALL THE TIME, but it really ain't for me. But he said basically that I could do it at home his way or go back to the hospital.

Of course he said NO DRIVING, and basically I couldn't! But here's my question, he said if I drove, since he had advised me not to, that my insurance would not cover me....is that true, or was that just a scare tactic?
