Overwhelmed with Medications

There’s a book called dirty genes that tells about all things that trigger gb liver issues , such as scented hand soap etc

Talk to your doctor.

B-12 comes in the form of a shot you can get in your arm thigh or bottom. Can be administered at many select pharmacies or at your PCP doctors office. This vitamin should last a little longer in your system & have a more direct-feeling impact on your energy; it did for me. Hopefully this takes one less orally ingested pill off your plate 💝 Happy healing!

Have you looked into B12. That will help you with energy. I take a b12 spray and I feel energized in minutes

Are you seeing one doc for these 18 meds? My best friend's mom was seeing different specialists who prescribed her things, and many of the meds were in the same class. For example, one doc gave her gabapentin and the other pregabalin. Basically both the same medication. It is sedating, and she was tired all the time. Just thinking you may want to have someone look at your meds and their interactions with each other.

Yes. I have devices that increase ATP, cellular energy. I take zero meds

Eating an organic diet helps me a lot. Reduced my pain. Have stayed on organic foods for the last 12 years on advice of a fibromyalgia specialist. FM patients are extra sensitive to chemicals. Even perfume etc.

Believe it or not I was like you 2 months ago and went off of 12 meds and changed my diet. Still on steroids... You can do it... I feel so much better.

Get a cute pill organizer (or two or three depending on the size of your pills). Getting a new, colorful pill organizer and establishing a refill routine on Sundays made having to take a thousand pills a day a little more bearable. Try sleeping and waking on a very strict schedule for a few weeks to a month, deviate from it as little as possible. Getting a consistent amount of sleep may also help with the fatigue of burnout

I would discuss your thoughts with your doctors and see how you can best tweak your regimen to help you. You shouldn’t feel like crap on medications that are meant to help you. However, I would not just start dropping meds and listening to the internet on how to do that

Medications were killing me. Could never get better no matter what I did. Was so run down and sick. Overwhelmed and felt like the doctors weren't helping. The weren't because they aren't trying to cure you. Just give you more meds with more side effects. I'm off of 12 meds now in 2 months. 1 last 1 is steroids taking my time to get off it. Never felt better. Most my health conditions are surprisingly gone. Sounds crazy but true

Maybe evaluate with your doctors if you can go off of a few of the medications. It's possible either some of the meds themselves, or them interacting with each other is making you tired. I don't recommend trying anything else such as caffeine, vitamins, other pills, etc. until you talk to your doctors. Adding on any of those could possibly make the situation worse.

Don't for get, B2, B12,Vit C, Biotin, Zinc, and CoQ-10 all vitamins I've has added. I can't remember if it was B12 or B2 that even though you are in the "normal" range 5-10% of people are defiecent and in causes cognitive issues.

What if anything do you try to give you energy? Caffeine? Energy drink? I have little energy too, but I notice once I have my coffee, I'm good 👍
