[quote=Anonymous]I really like my GP but she is old school. I am 10-15 lbs overweight and every time I see her she pushes me to try to lose weight. I already work out regularly, eat mostly healthy and count calories, do intermittent fasting - and the weight just won’t come off as a 45 yo perimenopausal woman. At my last appt I broached the subject of trying a GLP-1 and she said she would never prescribe it for someone who doesn’t qualify for the drug because they are more overweight. I know I could go through other channels to get it, but that feels really awkward because I would need to disclose I am taking it at my next physical and then I would have totally gone around her to get it. Has anyone else been told no by their primary doctor but gone around them to get the meds? How did it go over when you eventually had to tell your doctor?[/quote]
