Guest guest Posted August 14, 2001 Report Share Posted August 14, 2001 , Sounds like your dr apt went well. More drugs though, ugh! Sounds like you have a tummy like mine so hopefully you can tolerate the new ones and new dosages. That can be the tough! Good job on drinking the water and walking. Has the weather been nice for you atleast? I am sure I have told you, my dh is from Michigan and we wish we could go there again this summer. We'll definitely be back within the year so his family can see our little one. In just a few weeks it will be getting cooler in Michigan and it will still be in the 100's here :-( Take care, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 14, 2001 Report Share Posted August 14, 2001 : It sounds like your doc appt went well. It is so hard to get on a routine with the water, exercise and everything, but once you do, watch out, it will be so easy! And when you start losing weight, you will be so thrilled, you will be downing the water! Good luck, we are all here to encourage you!

Guest guest Posted August 15, 2001 Report Share Posted August 15, 2001 , I'm glad you stood your ground with your dr sweetie. I would wait also and see how the paxil works and go from there. You know I'm here for you whenever you need to talk. Love & hugs, Jo-Ann DR appt today*!!!!! Hello*!!!!! well okay first off this DR wanted me on some much stronger drugs......Prozac and some dopadreme (or something like that) and I was not too happy about that. I told the DR I just started the Paxil and he said well okay.....but 10-20mg only has a 17 hour half life (how long it is active in your system) so he has me starting the 20mg on Sunday (like planned) then another 8 days later start 30mg.I am also to take Xanax for aniety attacks only. He said that once the Paxil kicks in it will help with the aniety attacks, but in the mean time take the Xanax when I do need it.....and only when I need it.I talk to him about the gastric bypass and he said he has heard good things about the Center I am looking into and even another DR's office I am looking into. This DR too was over weight......not as bad as me, but he understand the health risks I am getting into....so hey that worked out. So I go back in 3 weeks and see how I am doing then......and go from there......he warned me that we might have to play around with doses for a while.......so I am okay with that.....

Guest guest Posted August 15, 2001 Report Share Posted August 15, 2001 , Whenever I'm trying to "drink my water"... I always make sure I have lots of crushed ice in it. For some reason, it makes it easier for me to drink! I think downing to recommended amount of water is a mind game anyway! Good luck Sweetie... I'm praying for you! {{{HUGS}}} Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
