Hello Doctor, I m 63 old woman trying to lose weight ht:5 0.75 223 lbs I have several health issues: CAD of LAD @ 35 percent in 11/2009-no stents or heart attacks since that diagnosis. I have Nitrostat 0.4 mg tablet if needed for angina. Luckily, I have only needed this @ 3x At times in the past 2-3 years. I have available orally disasolvable soft tablet of klonopin for immediate relief of any chest pain etc., and if that don t work I will take my nitroglyserin if my BP is greater than 145-190 mmhg AND if my heart rate is greater than 100 beats per minute, AND if my angina lasts more than 5 . I also have sinus bradycardia if I don t exercise at least 1.5 hrs on a recumbent bike everyday and/or if I take more than 20 mg celexa. Also, hypothyroid-taking @137 mcg levothyroxine. Also gastritis-40 mg pantoprazole in am, and 20 mg famotidine in pm. Also 1000 mg Ranexa for the heart, 20 mg atorvastin, and 10 mg Zetia. I have also been diagnosed with panic disorder with major depression-10 mg celexa and 0.125 mg klonopin in am, 5 mg celexa and 0.125 mg klonopin in pm. At midnight I take 150 mg Bupropion with my statin drugs. I Also take 1-325 mg in am and 81 mg aspirin in pm. Over the counter: 100 mg tocotrienols. 500 mg turmeric. Nutrilite Daily Free Vitamin.

I have lost @ 50 lbs since 2009. Since I have lost 0.75 in height in the past one or two years, I m really interested in getting my weight down to lessen the pressure on the vertebrae of the spine? I hope I haven t overwhelmed you with information--but is it SAFE to take the latest fat-reducing hyped supplement: Green Coffee Bean? Thanks Sandra Osowski
