I know you've been super careful with your diet and have been exercising regularly. The disease just gets to the point that you need meds. I have to see it realistically. I have tried very hard and changed my entire diet and try to be active . I get too hard on myself to the point of unrealistic expectations. So I am not going to beat myself up. I am going to continue to do my best and take my meds if that is what my doctor wants to do. Link to comment
