Hi @constanceann, I add my welcome to Teresa's and Predictable's.
In my opinion, a pharmacist is a key and respected member of my care team. Good care includes many health care professionals, including the patient.

@constanceann I love the words in your post, " I just have to take charge of my health." BRAVO!! Being proactive is very important for all of us who are dealing with chronic illnesses of any kind. I always recommend second opinions, online research (from dependable websites of course) and support groups. The more proactive you are, the better. Keep up the good work and keep in touch with Mayo Connect, we look forward to hearing from you again. Teresa

Thank you. From what I just read getting off of this medicine will be a process. Kind of scary thats for sure. Since being on it, I have also gained weight and I am more tired and have less energy and I just don't feel good. A good talk with the doctor is in order or seek another doctors opinion. I just have to take charge of my health.
