DSM3KIDZ Posted February 4, 2006 Report Share Posted February 4, 2006 (edited) I've been on flornief for about 2 weeks. I am gaining some weight. I'm not having too many side effect now (just headaches) and don't want to stop but I also have enough weighing on my heart with this illness that is hurting my self-esteem that I don't need the extra weight making me feel bad about myself.I know it's vein but it's like kicking me while I'm down. Do you know if the weight stops once your body adjusts to the meds? Also if you stop does the weight come off or do you have to work for 6mo. to get the pounds off?Do all the bp/hr meds cause weight gain? If not which ones don't have that side effect?Thanks Dayna Edited February 4, 2006 by DSM3KIDZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSM3KIDZ Posted February 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2006 Thanks michiganjan,I will call my doctor on Monday. I think maybe I'll try midodrine and go back to florinef if midodrine doesn't work for me.Dayna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
