Without getting into too much detail. I underwent some tests, because I had some symptoms that would warrant it, a couple of weeks ago for a brain tumor. And the neurologist was like "While we wait for the tests next week why don't you try these pills and see if you feel better?" And these were potent anti-psychotics he was prescribing, with some intense side effects. I was pretty surprised how cavalier he was prescribing such a strong medicine, especially when he wasn't even sure if it would help me. No tumor by the way.
