The new doctor never heard of Cobenfy. He would not give it me. I am seeking a different doctor now. Looking at telehealth doctor maybe.

The USA i assume you are in. Because in the uk they will not give us this amount of easy meds. i only myself if overweight would look into either one of two avenues, full carnivore for a time leading to keto in a healthy clean way, or the Michael Mosley diet, or full activity and high carbohydrate no fat no oil diet which is the "anti-diabetes" diets for all. They are all on youtube. I do not advise or give you medical advice. Research all these things yourself if you do decide to do one of these, including side effects of not doing the diets properly etc. I pray God the Father you will be cured of these issues either by self work or direct from God or other, in Jesus name, Amen.

This is something to think about. I have been doing my food budget. I have been making menu items that are $2.00 and less.

I want to give an update to the status with the Cobenfy. I found a doctor who gave me Cobenfy. I have the prescription sitting on my table right now. I take the first tablet here in about 11 minutes.

With Cobenfy, you can't take any food for 2 hours before it. And no food 2 hours after it. If you do you will be vomitting for about 3 days. Very very sick.

I am to taper off the respiradone slowly, according to the doctors schedule.

The doctor gave me some medicine for nausea, I am to use it as needed. Most people have nausea the first 1 - 2 weeks.

Lord Jesus, please help our brother manage his ailments. We thank you for the stripes you bore on your body which purchased our healing.

Amen.

After taking the Cobenfy. I first had really bad heart burn, and was dizzy. then, the nausea happened. Really Really sick for about 3-4 hours.
The nausea is supposed to stop after about 1-2 weeks. The doctor told me to stick with it.

Yeah I had the second pill this morning. I didn't get sick this time.
I cannot wait until I am off the respiradon all the way. This is really going to change things.

So today I have been reducing the respirdal and now I stopped taking it. I stopped it early. I had function again today. The next few days will be needed to fully recover with the respirdal gone. What's next is a girl friend for me.
With respirdal gone, the hunger is gone, and now the fat will start to reduce. I only need to eat balanced meals and cut out the junk food, except in moderation. I'm not hungry anymore, and it's going to get even better in few days.
I found out if I have soda with the Cobenfy before it's time, I will get sick. Only cool aid or tea is ok.

I had to start taking respirdal again because I was unable to sleep. I then had an attack. I am waiting for the Doctor to tell me when I can stop respirdal.

Are you switching meds at the doctors recommendation or because of the side effects?

Still coming off respirdal. Today I get to reduce another .5 mg off it. I just seen my doctor today. It will be down to 1mg. I have just two more weeks before it's gone. My research says, it takes 2 months to fully recover after the last respirdal.
