Would it be weird to give my doctor a note about my symptoms because of my stuttering? Hey everyone. I have an important hospital appointment soon, and I really want to make sure I explain all my symptoms clearly. Because of my social anxiety, I get nervous and stutter a lot; sometimes, nothing comes out of my mouth. I’m thinking about writing down all my symptoms in a note and giving it to my doctor at the start of the appointment. Has anyone done this before? Do you think it’s weird? Would it help? Thanks a lot!
