I went to the doctor yesterday. First I got labs taken then they weighed me. I lost 11lbs since my last visit. Goal 72 more pounds. The doctor upped my Lyrica and added a new medication for breakthrough pain for the winter. I have Fibromyalgia and Rheumatoid Arthritis Do you have to go to the doctor regularly?

My last doctor visit was about 10 years ago. I'll be going to pick up my friend as the hospital in about an hour.

@dismalgrin So far so good but it takes a lot of work and discipline to do what's good for the body and not what harms it.

Hope your new medication helps. I have to go to doctor regularly as I have diabetes and endometriosis and both need regular check up.
