DOCTOR VISIT..........

I went to the Docs yesterday and she put me on BP meds :( She said don't be discouraged just because I am on medication doesn't mean that I will be on it for the rest of my Life...She said as long as I am losing weight and watching what I eat I will be off in no time.......Hoping she is right!!

Has anyone been on meds and then been taken off?

    I have had my dosage cut and I am hoping to completely be off them when I go back for my annual physical this summer. My doctor has also kept me on a low dose of cholesterol meds even though I am back in the normal range. I had a TIA stroke 4 years ago so he is being overly cautious but I would still like to be off all meds once I lose all my weight and back in shape.

    I don't want to be on meds :( She did say once the weight comes down all healthy issues come down as well so I got to keep working out and watching what I eat :) Good Luck to you!!
