Welcome to HealthCare Magic

I hope you are doing good. You are doing a great job as you are trying to quite and you are almost near. You can visit the regular doctor if he deals with such cases and have experience along with encouraging you and can give you the time you need.
Mostly regular doctors don't deal with such cases. You can get contact of the doctors from there and can visit them in there private time as they know from the start about your cases and treatment. Suddenly stopping and starting all over with a new doctor wont be a good idea.

I hope have answered your Query. Feel free to ask if you have any query. Wish you good Health.
Regards
