Psychiatrist anxiety
So I was diagnosed by my primary care doctor and therapist with generalized anxiety disorder and a panic disorder. My PCP wants me to go to a psychiatrist to manage the medication I'm on for it, and my first appointment with this new doctor is on Friday. I read on their website that they can use MRI/CTs to help diagnose and treat disorders, and the thought of this terrifies me. I've had an irrational fear since I was like 10 that I have a brain tumor (yes, I realize it's the anxiety) and therefore have always had a fear of getting a brain MRI. If I already have a diagnosis and just need medication management, will they do any diagnostic tests like this? What's your experience?
