Got into a conversation the other night with a group of friends and was amazed not only how many were on some sort of medication, but even more at the various things and amounts they were on.

Ages 35-45 and I was the only one that wasnt taken prescription medication for anything. How common is this?

What are you on and for what?

52 and none, in fact, I have only had 2 scripts written for me as an adult 1 for antibiotics and 1 for pain pills after having my wisdom teeth removed, took the antibiotics and 1 of the pain pills.

As I get older I get more worried about my whole body shitting the bed at one time and going from no meds to a pharmacy twice a day within a month.

I never went to a Doctor,just for general health,til I was 40.Just work related Physicals every few years.

At present I take 2 Blood Pressure Meds,Lipitor for Cholesterol,and 3 1 mg Xanax a day.

Also take 40 mg of Celexa,an anti-depressant.I can't sleep without it.

I'm convinced that the only reason I have to take it,is because I took it.Those meds re-wire your Brain.

I'm 58.

I've had a Total Knee Replacement on my Rt Knee.When I had that done I was taking 180 mg of Morphine a day.

I got off the pain meds,2 years ago,after I rehabbed my knee.

Very happy to be off them.

34, Synthroid for my thyroid. Been on it since I was 15.

If I wasn’t on it, the non-malignant goiter in my throat would swell up and slowly cut off my breathing as well as wreck my entire system. Everyone can make fun of the fatty with the thyroid disease but I’m not a fatty and I was one of the younger males ever diagnosed with this. It is pretty shitty and would never want anyone to have what I have but I am grateful for the meds and modern science as I probably shouldn’t be alive.

48, no daily pills.

I do have a prescription of muscle relaxers and steroids for when my rotator cuff acts up. Trying to stave off surgery on it. Havent taken either in a few months though.
