How To Improve Metabolism To Achieve Weight Reduction, Arthritis Makes Exercise Impossible?

I had a stint put in 10 years ago from a block artery in my heart. I am obeise but have arthritis really bad so exercise is out of the question. My metabolism is extremely low and I am 5'9" tall and 300 lbs. I do take plavix, enalapril, metoprolol, aspirin, folic acid,simivastin, etc the doctor says this does not work, and to me just lose the weight or die. My metabolism is very low and I don't lose weight and really want to, I don't care if I have to eat only 500 calories can I do the drops and not die from something stupid from the drops?
