How Many Pills do you take?
As an old guy with many operations and removals and a quad by-bass operation I take EIGHT different pills daily, one is done twice and one three times a day. An extra one for pain which is why I quit the racing of the 914-6 as it wasn't safe to do any longer.
How about you all, anyone beat me? John |

Age 67....zero until today.
Had my second Pfizer shot yesterday and I'm eating aspirins every two hours. The headache is the worst I think I've had. But, I normally never get a headache. Not sure what's up with that. I didn't count the daily GNC mens vitamin I take.

Age 77...4 in the morn, adding one every other day. Two of them again at night. That's the prescription stuff. 5 supplement pill daily, all suggested by the P.A., she my "primary care" gal.
That may all end soon. Had a blow up at the clinic when there for a scheduled blood draw. Bum ticker gives me a real problem with the mask. Get dizzy from lack of oxygen after a few minutes in one. I've had 2 modurna shots...why still the mask need? Because our governor, aka Kommisar Kate says so, I guess. Told the lab girl I was getting dizzy, asked if I could mask cheat a bit...she said no. I then cancelled, went out a nearby door, removed mask, took deep breaths until the dizzy went away. Drove home. Bottom line...as I type, I don't know if I have medical care available anymore. Without the blood draw results, P.A. won't prescribe meds. I have about a month of meds left. So, I may be finding out what life without blood thinners, blood sugar modifiers, blood pressure pills, etc. is like. Hell, for all I know, I might feel better without them!

64: One pill for the last 30 years due to an inverted T Wave on my EKG, I have had the issue my entire life, apparently.
That's it for now.
