Wait for your doctor: It is very admirable that you have made so many excellent lifestyle changes, all of which I'm sure will benefit you in the long run. But you should not adjust your medications without discussing it with your personal doctor first. By working together, your doctor can keep track of the changes so if anything goes wrong, he or she will be able to better pinpoint if it was your med change or other.
