About seven years ago I decided to have a physical and I have been hurting ever since. I wasn't feeling great so I thought a physical might help me figure out the problem. That visit started me on a long road of DRUGS. I am now taking six prescriptions. Six pills that I take on a daily basis plus three supplements that the doctor feels I need. I have to return to the Doctor every three months for blood test to make sure my kidneys and liver are still functioning. I hurt all over!!!! My neck, between my shoulders, my back.... I just ache and I am so tired. I have talked to my Doctor about this but the only thing she says is, "your blood work looks fine"! I went to another doctor and asked if I could stop taking any of the medicine, he said; "No, your blood work is fine"! My blood may be fine but I feel horrible.
This is a list of the current medicines I take. most of them I have been taking daily for 7 years, I am so tired of taking all this medicine and the expense, even with insurance, is outrageous. I would stop taking it on my own but the warning on the labels say "do not stop taking the drugs without contacting your doctor." I want to feel better! My doctor suggests that I visit a pain clinic, no way, just more drugs. Any suggestions?
