First came the diagnosis, then the meds, then the weight gain, and now MORE meds for high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and also monitoring of glucose levels and kidney functioning. Is it worth it to be stable? I don't know, but I sure am tired of fighting the weight with no success. Fighting the bipolar is a constant battle, too.
Sorry, no advice, your post just made me think of all the extras that come with the disease.
