Hi all
I have of course, checked with my GP, my Endocrinologist and my pharmacist that Xenical is safe to take with my exisitng meds, as in they won't react with or against each other...but I can't help but wonder if, with the reported..ahem...side effects that can be experienced whilst on Xenical...if all that flushing (pardon the pun) would in some way affect the efficacy of my existing medication?
I'm on anti-thyroid drugs for hyperthyroidsim, and also medication for high blood pressure. My thyroid is *SO* twitchy at the best of times...I just hope Xenical won't upset the fine balance of medication that my Endo and I have been striving for.
Anyone else here on exisiting medication for other health issues, and have you noticed any difference in them working or not?
I plan to start on the Xenical tomorrow (Sunday) as I am out all night tonight on an investigation, in a remote area, with basically a group of strangers...
