I got yet another Rx today I have to start taking. my company has pretty good benefits (part of the reason i'm trapped there) & the copays are still killing me. I guess I should be thankful that my Rx charges didnt total $550 like I saw one woman have. anyway, I was curious....how many Rx's do you have to take per day? *thinking* I take like 4 or 5 and then calcium & iron too. (on days i remember) wow. thats a lot.

but arent those vitamins a prescription? or you just take over the counter. my doc has me taking pre natal vitamin. which is a pain in the butt cause every time I have something new happen & i have to go to a different doc they say "oh are you pregnant?" to which I sigh & say "no just formerly fat. presently pudgey. thank you very much" the last doc i saw who wrote up this script said this, I swear no lie: him: youre pregnant? me: no, I had weight loss surgery & my surgeon requires those for life. him: you had wls? me: yes him: did you lose weight? me: *strange look* yessir I did. I'm not claiming to be skinny, but good grief man, c'mon.

my doc told me to take FLINTSTONES.. chewable.. and the first year bloodwork.. I was a little low in iron.. so they said ..."take FLINTSTONES with IRON.. chewable" but I bolted and now take CENTRUM chewables.. sue me.. and TUMS.. for calcium.. and a potassium.. when I start feeling leg cramps and a B-12 sublingual.. just cuz I want too.. when I think of them all..

Zero...Thank God too since I have no prescription coverage. Well unless you consider the Nuva Ring taking a prescription. If so, then one but only once a month.
