Question: I have used topamax and phentermine in combination for weight loss in the past with really good success, through a weight loss physician. I have recently gained ALOT of weight, about 30 lbs in the course of the last six months. I seem to not be able to keep my caloric intake low enough to maintain my body weight at a normal level without some kind of appetite suppressant. I have purchased and tried a combination of holistic versions but they are not giving me the boost long enough that I need to get back into my clothes I want to take Qsymia for a three to five month course of treatment to re- lose this gain, and then transition to the holistic aids. In the meantime, I have insomnia to a degree that I have almost zero quality of life. I only sleep for about three hours at a time and then have to take naps regularly not to go totally crazy with misery and fatigue. I have tried every holistic thing I can afford for this too, and every possible strategy for optimal sleep hygiene.
How do I get my doctor to let me have a prescription for Qsymia and Ambient?
