Doing alright, somewhat, off meds

I’m still taking Abilify, but I stopped BP, diabetes, and Cholesterol meds. My BP was 134/71 this morning, but my fasting blood sugar was 116, a little high. Under 100 is normal and under 125 is prediabetes. Don’t know about cholesterol yet.

My fasting blood sugar was 134 this morning WITH drugs so I’d say you’re doing pretty good for no meds.

My old doctor said I could try going off these meds. Just keep an eye on them. I’ve lost 50 lbs after switching to Abilify.

I started taking Milk Thistle mainly to cleanse my liver. I’ve read it may lower blood sugar and cholesterol. I’m an alcoholic and am afraid I messed up my liver with the drinking.
