Well went to neuro today ALONE! Turned out the motherly mother had slept badly last night and wanted to not venture anywhere. Anyway, my neuro was either not having too good a day or was not as friendly if it doesn't look like your on death's door.

 

I went to check with him,since this is a debate in our house, between hubbie and I, my meds and if and when I'm free of them. He told me to drop the Lipitor starting tonight and then have a lipid profile in a month. In two more weeks I get to replace the Plavix with 81mg of aspirin. That aspirin I will be on for life.

Since I adjusted well to taking the Lipitor and Plavix, I wonder if I will notice anything or not.

 

Good news and nice for the checkbook but kinda scary too. :bouncing_off_wall:

 

Well spring is springing here in Chicago. My Honeysuckle is budding and bulbs are starting to peak out of the ground! Made it thru another winter! :gleam: bring on the warm weather!

Jan,

I remember the joy I felt as I got to shed each and every med from my daily cocktail. Good luck getting rid of them all!

Pam

PS... Glad you got to go alone to the neuro! yippee!

This is so great to hear. To be honest I don't know anymore if my "symptoms" are stroke related or drug side affects. I can hardly wait to get off my assortment of prescription poisons.
