ellyssianWent to the new doctor on Friday.
The nurse and the doctor both did double takes when they saw one of the meds on the list - "That will definitely make you drowsy. I was on that and had to switch because it left me too tired." "That will cause fatigue. I'm don't want to say he was doing a bad job, but I'm not sure why he used that medication. It's usually only used for much older people."
So the only one of the old med cocktail I still retain is the rescue inhaler.
I started another med for the high blood pressure, and, surprisingly enough, with only four days of taking it, I can see the numbers looking nicer already.
Received a tetanus shot, and had blood drawn for some tests. Also, scheduled a sleep study.
