I feel very anxious about her plan to decrease several of my medications. I think she is in favor of going slowly, which is good. I have been through this before, and it has always been a distressing time. Usually I end up going back on the same medications. I am 73 now, my husband of 49 years died one year ago this month, and I am afraid of "rocking the boat," so to speak.
