Somebody on here last night said that in Florida it's the law that you have to disclose all prescriptions you have to every doctor you see.



That's pretty typical everywhere. You have to fill out the medical form(s) prior to seeing the attending physician and that includes all conditions and medications -- at least it has every time I have had to change doctors over the years.
