Oncology check in...
I asked if I could stop taking so many vitamins and minerals (Iron, magnesium, Vit B complex, Vit D3, and calcium). Unfortunately due to my osteopenia I have to stay on the calcium and D3. I can stop the magnesium and the B complex if I want to. Iron I can decrease to every other day.
We talked about my dry mouth and how bad it gets. She looked through all my meds and as I suspected, the main culprit is the Amitriptyline that I take for migraine prevention. I have tried to stop it many years ago and couldn't. I'm planning on contacting neurology to see if we can try again. Especially since I'm on different migraine prevention meds now.
Overall the visit was uneventful. All the labwork was good. She said I can use a GLP-1, it is not contraindicated. Now I just have to see if my PCP will prescribe it.
