I saw a new GP today. I really liked her. She recommended me to a nutritionist and I am very excited about this. I have never before seen my current size in my life and it makes me self loathe. Hopefully she can help me counteract all of these drugs. But then, of course, if I do start Clozaril, I will blow up like a freaking balloon (I understand it is worse than Zyprexa). We shall see.
She also looked down at my med list, looked up at me, and said, you know you take an unusually high amount of meds, right? (And all the people said "Amen")
My IOP therapist and my mom also discussed this very thing today and my therapist is still working to get me into a pdoc at the hospital. That will give me a second set of eyes prior to Sept (which is the soonest available second opinion I could get). Anyway, I just thought I'd share...another professional who agrees with what I suppose is the obvious.
