re: Do you think this is a setup or legit medical inquiry?

I'm not at all paranoid. I just want to make sure that my Dad is not tampering with this (though he shouldn't know but you know how that goes). I'm not going to some mental hospital. And, I'm clearly not a danger to anyone.

Yes you are. A doctor cannot have you committed because your dad said to.

That is ILLEGAL. I repeat, ILLEGAL.

Everything was fine until I told the neuro that my headaches increase when I'm around cell phones, which is true. When I wouldn't answer some questions, he said that pappiladema has nothing to do with anything psychological. Basically, I think he might be sketchy.

No, you are being paranoid. He isn't being sketchy. Neurologists ask plenty of questions to determine if there is a psych element associated. There are many things that they see that are psych associated. They deal with the brain.

I will say this very seriously, if this isn't a troll, and they saw papilledema, shut the frick up, quit thinking you know everything (you don't), quit thinking that everyone is out to get you, and GO TO THE frickING DOCTOR.

I like being blunt in these threads to stress the importance of this.
