Struggling with AFRID and Medication

I have AFRID and it's been really rough lately. a big thing for me is avoiding foods after they come back up and lately it's been my medicine making me sick and I just can't get myself to take them anymore. I need my medicine, without it I'm numb and often unstable. I don't know what to do and I'm so scared to even think about taking my medicine. Any advice?

You might have to start getting pushy /nm. I'd say call them to schedule an appointment for a change of meds and tell them all of the problems its causing. Make a list if you need to. You got this and you are strong!

I've already been to two different appointments recently and brought it up both times, the first one didn't even say anything other then he doubts that I'm autistic and the other one told me to talk to a different doctor I won't be able to see for months. I'm at a lost

If your meds are causing such severe side effects I would definitely schedule an appointment with your doctor and see if they can be changed.
