How many meds?
Do you take?
When did I get here?
To be this person who is on 5 different medications?
Am I the only one?

Re: How many meds?
Soon I will be on no less than 7 meds.
After a short time I will be on 4 and then hopefully only 2-3.
Not counting supps.

Re: How many meds?
My DH is a type 2 diabetic (long time diabetic) and is on a ton of medications. It's the standard protocol for diabetics now to be given several meds for preventative purposes ... so he takes Lipitor to prevent heart disease although he does not have high cholesterol, he takes a blood pressure med to protect the kidneys even though his blood pressure is fine, etc.

Re: How many meds?
When I wasn't pregnant, I was taking synthroid, birth control, and flutamide (for PCOS). Now I take the synthroid, a calcium supplement, an iron supplement, and a prenatal. I'll probably keep taking all the supplements after the baby is born and go back to the other 2 pills so I'll be up to 6 pills a day. AND I cant take certain pills with others because they counteract so I have to remember to take pills 3x a day.
