Is it normal practice
 
I went to the doctor, and id been to him once before... supposedly hes the new family doctor of ours..

anyways

he aks, do you smoke, alchohol, marijuanna, heroine, cocaine, caffiene, and etc..

I just thought it was a little wierd... like does anyone go to thier doctor and say, yeah coke, mary jane, i do it all baby... my answers were mostly no but i thought it was wierd

This is in the Canada forum cause canadian healthcares is different

Yeah that seems pretty straight forward to me. The Dr wants to get a whole picture of yoru health so he can advise you. He's be remiss in his duty if he didn't get all the information related to items that may affect your health.

I guess thats true I just figured people wouldnt tell them anyways..

how bad is caffiene for you anyways?

There is dr / patient confidentialityso i'm sure it's standard practice. Besides it is very important you tell your doctor those kind of things so they can accurately diagnose you. It is only in your best interest to be straight up with your dr.

dr/ patient confidentiality is great- except when your GP is your dad.

Caffiene isn't that bad if you just drink coffee or coca cola once in a while...but once you start downing 2-3 caffiene pills...things aren't too good.
You might want to look some stuff up...maybe on erowid.com about it. They have personal experiences on there. There are alot of horror stories if you care to look through them.

Oh i dont have a problem i was just wondering I only drink cola sometimes and thats about it

shannon 07-17-2004 09:02 AM

well and with caffeine it could like interact with other things if he gave you a perscription...that coild be why he's asking....just a guess.
i could see it feeling weird to be asked all that at the time, but it makes sense.
