Do your chemists not do the weekly book thingy where they are all made up for you? They are so handy when you have several medications.

They do I think but we order online or from the POD once a month then I do the dispensers once a week.

I there anybody else on here that DOESN'T have regular medication ?
Mrs D has none and I take 10 ml Omeprazil every other day (maybe daily if I dont eat/drink sensibly).
We feel quite fortunate at our age.

Nothing at all for me and I have never had medication of any kind. MR WD has medication for high blood pressure.

In the village where I live just about every Male is on medication for high blood pressure and cholesterol whereas very few women are on medication for any problem.

Nothing for me at the moment. I do take Cod liver oil and Turmeric capsules as supplements though.

Me too, but not convinced they do much. Do you think they do?

Having had angina and a heart attack I'm fully chemically fuelled these days, three tablets a day, without them there's a good chance I'd be pushing up daisies in the local bone yard by now.

I do think they have an effect. I do eat a very varied diet also with plenty of oily fish and fresh fruit and veg, and if I stop the supplements my joints do seem a little bit more creaky and stiff than without. Of course this could all be psychosomatic and the capsules are just having a placebo effect.
