HI-Remember Me!!

Well I thought I would check in & let you know I am still alive. About 3 maybe 4 weeks ago I stopped taking all of my perscription drugs ( do not recommend this without Dr's approval) Mine
still does not know I did it. The good news is I have lost 10 lbs in 3 weeks
& feel sooooo much
better without the darn drugs. I was up to 8 they all had different side effects & the side effects are what was making everything worse. I am sleeping better, feel better & am eating a whole
lot less food without that stuff.
Now I go to a new Dr. in March & will have new labs done & see if there are any I might have to
go back on, but, I am not going back to 8 of them.
I haven't read on how everyone is doing yet, I hope all is good. Sorry i have been MIA will try to
check in more often.
 I am also going to my local TOPS & that is helping with support I have never had any of.
Still Love the Marchers

Hi there facebook friend!!!!!

are you sure it was wise to go off all of those perscriptons? don't get me wrong i'm not a perscription person but when they give them to me after i've quizzed them a gazillion times about side effects i will usualy go on them.
but sometimes you can get even more issues going off them in a blink of the eye.
i'm sure tha tyou've read up on all of that.
just wondering.
hopeing everything continues to go fantastic for you!
see you on facebook!!!

HI Pammy
 I am monitoring my BP on my own & it has dropped topretty good levels, where the BP drugs
were causing my BP to be out of control.
The Thyroid pills & antidpressants were causing the weight gain, as the thyroid pills were not
being obsorbed. Yes, I was concerned about going cold turkey off the antidepressants cause
of the horror stories. I am O.K.
I monitor my sugars & they run pretty darn good on the low-carb lifestyle I pretty much stick to
these days. I will have my AIC checked next month to make sure it is still O.K. that is the one that
can kick your but pretty quickly without much warning.
I am really trying to get back to the NO SUGAR rule, I should have never started. Some days are O.K, some are not.
Alll-in-all I feel much better. I'm hoping this new Doc will at least listen to me, the one I just left
was killing me softly with these meds. I was telling her for months we needed to change them.
She just kept addinf more of something. My body reacted badly. I took the challenge & so far am
very glad I did.
I still drink way too much coffee (my addiction of choice) but have cut that in half as well. I WILL GET below 200 lbs. I never did & have started re-adjusting my attitude.
Sorry this got so long winded. Just no I am keeping close eye on my health & will keep you
all better up to date.

I was just thinking about you yesterday while I was tooling around in my car attending to life's minutia of details - glad to see you back. Take good care of you. What's the word on the job front? Maureen
