Things I've lost

I lost almost 70 pounds. I was prescribed ibphrophen 800 for an injury 3 years ago when I had a fall. I was suppose to take three a day. It took them a year to get me to a dr who ordered an MRI that showed I tore muscle ligament and two bone sperns and planters fesitious. So for the next year I had injections of steroids and steroid packs to hopefully fix the pain. I could barley walk on it. Pro long use of steroids causes yeast infections. Yeast builds in the intestinal track. It made ius way to my lungs. Being a diabetic my sugar was uncontrolled and I got really sick. I was still told to take the ibphrophen. I started having pain and swelling in my gall bladder area. I couldn't do anything. I was so sick and in pain and all doctors did was prescribe more pills. Finally after 3 years my mom made a comment about how it may be the ibuprofen. So I looked up longterm uses and side effects and found I had all of them. No Dr ever told me not to be on them long term. While I was on them I got high blood pressure and damage to my eyes from high blood pressure. I stopped taking all my meds. Mostly due to fear. I had to cut out all sugar due to the yeast I had to get rid of because sugar and carbs make it grow. I healed from the yeast and my foot was better. My blood pressure went back to normal and weight started dropping off. I also quit having a red tent to my skin and rashes. But my GI track is still very messed up. Most days I can barely eat a bit. I stay nasiated and in pain. I have been iin pain for three years. Why didn't the doctors see this. Why did they keep prescribing pills. I'm terrified that I will forever have damage from this. Sometimes the side effects out way the reason u need pills in the first place. I would be carefull about taking anything from now on. #pills #ibphrofen #doctors #medications #pharmacy
