Dear Jill the Pill,
It’s sad for me, GABAPENTIN is twice-a-day to anti-seizure meds. No pain, no feeling of the med, but anti-seizure has helped me for 2.5 years ago since I had seizures and going to the hospital. I would love to quit these meds and I hope, everyday, stop these meds.
And I agree “ Neuropathny sucks!!” ❤️

Hello, Greg (@gregd1956),
I, too, have a slew of meds and would love to reduce the number by a quarter or a third. Of course, I won't do any reducing without my doctors' buy-in. The total of my daily pills was added to recently when I was in the hospital by doctors who were unknown to me (although I'm not doubting their best intentions). Before my hospitalization, my pill count (roughly reckoned) was four or five prescription meds and a half dozen supplements. Since my hospitalization, the count has risen to seven or eight prescription meds and a number nearing a dozen supplements (some are beverages). When I meet with my primary in a few weeks, I plan to place The List before us and ask, "Must I?" pill-by-pill. If I cannot reduce the number by at least a few, I'll soon need to replace my medicine chest with a Tuff Shed. 🙂
