Default RE: Meds

One for blood pressure that I kind of told my doc I wanted to be on. I was kind of borderline so I wanted it to come down some. I also, on my own, take a regular strengh aspirin that my MD is aware of too and doesn't have a problem with. Also a multivitamin w/minerals. I'll soon be 46 years old. I have some aches and pains but otherwise healthy. Cholesterol is about 210 or so. That will probably the next med I am on but they are kind of expensive so I haven't insisted on that yet.

Zero
Nada
None
A Motrin bottle of 50 tabs is a couple of years supply for me for headaches and various aches and pains.
But my wife................
I'd guess 14-16 a day. She has at least 7 current prescriptions for god only knows what.

Me? Zero! Avoid scripts and anything but an occasional asprin at all costs, unless absolutely necessary in MY opinion. Fiancee'? 29 years old and 9 scripts a day because of a head injury. Wonder why her kidney has problems? Hmmmmm??????

I try to avoid taking meds, includimg Advil or Tylenol. Occasionally you can't avoid it.I probably average 10 doses of Advil per year. That number seems to be going up every year, though.:-(
