I'm sure if I ever wanted to take phen again I would need to order it online. My endo gave it to me only because he knew how much I was struggling to lose 20 pounds. I was not obese, but I was overweight and since I have my thyroid working against me he gave it to me as a "push" to get my going in the right direction. He knows my history and my struggle. To me, it was a Godsend, but a lot of people I know said my doctor was "crazy" for giving it to me, that I wasn't heavy enough to have it prescribed to me. To that, I say BULL!!!! Not only has it helped me lose weight, but it has also helped me get my "head" in the right place, where I don't think about food all the time and have focused on other aspects of life. It has given me a whole new lease on life! But, I know that he won't prescribe it again, he did say it was "not long term".
I go see him for my follow up (post 2 months on phen) on 1/4 and I wish I could kiss him!
