Hi Maxime,
I know you meant well by your message, and I *really* appreciate that you even took the time to communicate your idea to us.
But even if it were just ME writing out the Exemption Status form, and just the doctor signing on the dotted line, I wouldn't feel right about listing all sorts of meds that I haven't even tried that.....you never know....somewhere down the line, I may try and find to be my miracle med, right?
I truly am not getting down on your case. I'm touched that you were thinking of ways to try and help me with this miserable situation. But not only can't *I* lie about meds that I haven't tried, but I wouldn't even think of asking my doctor to lie for me as well. We're supposed to be working as a team, and not a team like Bonnie and Clyde! Lol.
I've actually come to accept that the Topamax is gone. I had it long enough to get me down to a proper weight for my height (and maybe that was all that G*d's intention was), and since I'm also staying away from the Remeron....well, even though I'm middle-aged (good golly, when did THAT happen?!?)...I'm hoping I can learn some new ways of eating and exercising.
Inderal LA: weight neutral?? Hopefully.
Seroquel: I know it cause weight gain, BUT I'm only taking 100mg at night for insomnia (can't imagine that would cause the munchies)
Clonazepam: I don't know. Weight neutral??? PLEASE!!
Thanks so much for your concern. It's rather uplifting to know that others are reading this thread and thinking through scenerios as to how to help poor pitiful Sandy. LOL! But I *will* be fine. Each day behind me is another day towards completing the withdrawal process.
Take care, Maxime!
Sandy
