Scared..Please Help

[hjd289]

Hello! Well, I am kinda new to this site. I have been researching phentermine for weeks now and just reading as much as possible. Everyone I have talked to seems to be completely against taking this medication including my Primary care physician. I started the meds today. I only took half a pill because I am scared to death to put things in my body. My blood pressure has been in the prehypertension phase but my doctors and my parents and everyone is telling me that it is only a little up because I need to lose weight. This medication is suppose to make it go up more but will help me lose weight so I feel like I am in a circular argument with myself. Also, I am not able to take vitamins. I am allergic to something in a daily vitmain. I break out all over my face. It has happened several times now. I cannot even drink a slim fast because of the vitamins in it. I am a very paranoid person and I am scared about all of the side affects. If someone could please let me know your opinion.

you should talk to a naturpathic doctor, chromium will lower your bodyfat, especially around your belly...and vitamin b increases energy. you should have an allergy test to find out what your allergic to..it might not actually be a vitamin, it might be the product they use to hold the vitamin together, since mutivitamins have all the same vitamins that you take in just with food daily, just higher amounts. i heard there was a natural phen , that might be better for your BP
