Suffice to say, that exercise and calorie restrictive diets make the dosing and timing of medications much more complicated if an individual is to avoid side-effects. You need to inform yourself about the nature and indications of dosing of your drugs as well their side effects.

You should be prepared to offer an accurate summary of your diet and exercise to your pharmacist and doctor if you want any real help. Bull-spitting on the Internet is hardly the best place to start, go read the fine print on your drug prescription instructions etc........
The question wasn't a hope for an excuse but was a simple request for information because things seemed to be a bit slow in the stamina department. I wasn't looking for a diagnosis but simply wanted to know if any of the mentioned medications directly affected stamina. BTW, since three grandparents and one parent had diabetes as well as various aunts, uncles and cousins, I also had the heredity problem to deal with along with the things under my control that I have recognized and dealt with. I have owned up to my past problems and as stated have been losing weight and do have the diabetes under control.

Danno...Your response makes sense. To everyone else, thank you for your comments.
