Question: I am 65 years old. Have been taking Inderal (the generic) plus calcium, furesomide, lovastatin and busperone for the last 15 years. Regular doctor/wellness checks. Last BP reading was 120/80. However, I am sedentary...work at home...plus arthritis is bad in damp Chicago weather......worst thing is my weight. Hovering around 215 and would like very much to try HCG drops for about a month to help me drop the pounds. I am in good general health. Do not suffer headaches or any breathing difficulties. I do smoke! Please, what do you think? I am active with friends and family....I just mean by sendentary, I don't exercise. Can I do this program for 30 days without hurting myself? Have not had any surgeries or been treated for any diseases. When I started the medicines listed above I had lost my husband, found out devastating news about our personal/financial state of affairs...my life fell apart and I was on my own with two children. Over twenty years I've adjusted, am happy, single and have a good life. Correction: had a growth removed from my vocal chords about six years ago. No problems....follow up positive....no recurrences.
