1st--Emanuela--the advice I cannot take credit for, alas--it was Racer's.
The only thing I would add is to maybe put it on a timline.
I think the advice to go to the doc at least one last time is good. Take the documented info and go in to review it with him, kind of sum up together so you have an idea of what you are asking of a new pdoc. Plus, you worked with this guy a long time (in therapy, too), so I think a proper goodbye is a good idea.
As for the pessimism about anything helping--I'm with Racer. Last year you could not have convinced me that we could find a combo that would help. Now I know that it is possible. This combo has helped. It is amazing. The pessimism is a symptom.
It can be discouraging, I know. But I am sure you have not tried every possibility of combinations, and perhaps, as you mentioned, not tried some things for sufficient time to know if they work.
BTW, I know we must have discussed this before, but have you had an endocrinology workup?
