[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, and the doctor was really happy I’d lost weight and my #s were good a year later. But still wouldn’t write a prescription. [/quote]

This is because they know that, somewhere down the line, there are going to be massive lawsuits when we begin to see what these drugs are really doing to people’s long term health. [/quote]

Please go away with your ignorant wishful thinking. I have had my cardiologist and my primary doctor tell me that these drugs are only going to gain traction in treating many different things off label as well as for weight loss. They are pretty much a miracle drug. [/quote]
Maybe it's not the heart it affects, like Fen/phen. Maybe it is the gastric system and intestines. Time will tell.[/quote]
But at least they will get ten years, instead of dying of a heart attack or stroke. [/quote]

Yes, for the 55 yo obese patients with cardiac issues ameliorated by the drugs that may be the case. For a 39 yo mom who wants to drop 10 pounds to look better but has a BMI of 22 and no health issues developing necrotic pancreatitis is probably not worth  it. [/quote]
