This afternoon I see my primary care physician and I am hoping he will take me off the high blood pressure meds. I've lost 80lbs, and I don't think he's seen my at this weight since my 20's...I'm 44. The dosage has already been cut in half. Wish me luck!

Best of luck. Hope you come home med free!

How did it go ?

I'm seriously ready to toss these bp meds right along with you.

My doc said my blood pressure was great but he still wants me to stay on the dose I'm currently on. It's half the dosage I was on before surgery. I'm a little bummed but he is very cautious and he's going to check it again in six months. He said if I should have any issues I could come in sooner. I had a physical today and he said everything was looking good.

As an aside and a total NSV when I went to have blood drawn she got it on the first try from my arm! Losing 80lbs totally helped them find my veins! Usually I would get stuck 2-4 times and they would end up taking it from my hand...which hurts really bad.
