Blood pressure & weight

Jun 02, 2008

I went to the Dr today, and had my blood pressure taken. It was 120/90. Dr said that I needed to get the 90 down a bit before I can get the Phentermine again. [sigh] 

Either my scale is wrong, or the one @ the Drs office is. The one @ the Drs office says that I weigh 290, but the one here says I weigh 332.0. According to the scale here I have lost around 15 lbs, the one @ the Drs office says that I have lost 28 lbs! I guess that I will take this scale back and exchange it, and see what the new one says! [shrugs shoulders]

No word from the ins company about if they will approve me or not.

Blood pressure!

May 31, 2008

My blood pressure at the Drs office last week was 155 over something. I checked it yesterday at walmart and it was 115 over something. So I will go to the Dr monday and see if they will put me back on Phentermine. It has only been 3 days since I last took one, and I feel a big differance!

I was running out of my Phentermine, so the Dr said I needed to come in and get weighed, and my blood pressure taken. Well, I did loose weight, but my pressure was a little high. So, he did not call them in, instead he called in some blood pressure pills! I just hope that there are some other pills that he can give me. I don't want to go back to that miserable jail that the hunger kept me in! I just pray that I will be able to get that surgery soon!

News from Dr.

I just heard from the Dr. The ins has not yet approved me, but they have not turned me down. They keep asking for more information! I am going to take it as a good sign that it will happen! I just need to find out which one [WLS] I want to do. I believe that will be harder than getting approved! lol  I also need to find a bariatric surgeon. {sigh} That way my regular Dr and the surgeon can tag team them! We'll see.

My journal

May 19, 2008

Today I weighed 333 lbs, When I started I weighed around 146 lbs. I have lost that much before, so I am not that excited. I am however excited about the diet pills that I am taking! I have tried many over the counter pills before, they would work, but I couldn't take them because I would get bad acid reflux! Not to mention I would be extremely jittery! The name of the prescription pills are Phentermine 37.4 mg. At first I was a little jittery, but it was not too bad, but after a week, I just felt good. It gave me energy, but not bouncing off the wall energy! I eat a fraction of what I ate before. I really don't want to take anything, but it got to a point that I really needed some help. I am hoping that this will do the trick, I don't want to have bariatric surgery!
