[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 567972, member: 84"] I'd only schedule appts to see the doctor you've been seeing all along. Just because he's joined a much larger practice doesn't mean you have to see the other docs. They don't know your involved medical history that goes along with the mental history. psychiatrist was actually right in what she said. The problem is, due to various medical conditions......she's going to have to get much more creative in her suggestions. A set time to get up and try to stay up is fine. But as far as exercise goes.......to start off you might want to work on range of motion exercises first to help keep your joints moving and your muscles from atrophying and growing weaker. This itself will be tiring for a while until you build up some stamina. Moving is what is important. You don't need to do a marathon to move, you just need to move. Set time goals for eat set of exercises to increase stamina but don't beat yourself up if you have days you just can't reach them. You might want to make an appointment with your fam doctor and have a blood test to check your liver/kidney function. You are on a lot of different medications and they could be causing prolonged effect. Hugs [/QUOTE]
