Medic's on a daily basis?

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Hi all ill people.

I just wonder, how many Heartlanders have to take medics on a daily basis? I can see around me, friends and others that have to take medics every day for differnt reasons. Is it an age thing (me 36)?

I have to take one pill every morning for high bloodpressure, and 2 every night for high colestorole (spell). I feel like a really old sick man :(


Whatever. Just feeling lonley and bored here :urff:

41 years old and 20 fags and four cans of lager on a daily basis. Tiresome but hey ho ...

Fine. Then my diagnosis is to up the dosage on the alcohol and fags and forget the little pills. ;D

Because of the alcohol and fags I'm on one pill a day for the BP.

When I absolutely Have to, Prilosec. It's got vile side effects, and I mean really vile :urff: :urff: so I try to limit that, but sometimes I just have to. It's a one a day thing.

Otherwise, 2x's daily pepcid ac for my very very tender stomach! And Smooth Dissolve Tums...and they're actually very yummy.

Excluding the 10 - 20 Marlboro Lights and several Units of Alcohol a day.

I "Need" to daily injest at least 1, if not 2 cans of "Diet Coke" - its a "Aspartame" addiction thing - bloody FDA!

I also take an decent A -Z vitamin/mineral supplement and at the moment I am prescribed 30MG a day mild "Anti - Depressent" I dont wish to state "Why" - Its a "Living in Barry" thing ;-)

No I don't mind. I have this condition called acid reflux disease. It's when the esophagus (sp?) muscle gets weakend and acid comes out of your stomach there. The most common sypmptom is heartburn, but that's not what I get. I get a racking cough and my lips go numb. I'm not allowed a whole range of foods, wine, chocolate, good red sauce for pasta.. But typically it's stress that brings it on for me ...big time. :urff:

Moi aussi. Times two on weekend nights. (Not the age of course, although that's often how I feel the next morning). Plus 3 x 600mg ibuprofen a day for my dodgy back.
Go to sleep now, Francis.

I don't take anything, but I do work in a chemist and it's frightening to see the amount of things some people take. Especially when most of them are mental old people with Parkinson's being given loads of dopamine-level changing type medication and they don't have a clue how to take it or what they're taking it for!! It beats the s**t outta me........but the docs always right NOT(long story)

Fags (but not 20 a day, not even close), weed (from time to time) - very good for the BP, and grog - none of which stop my skin falling off (but I DID stay out in the sun too long in Cyprus, on the one sunny day :roll: )

That sounds pretty grim, Doomie. :eek: :(

Working in a hospital does tend to put you off necking tons of pills, unless you're at a festival of course. :D

Asthma inhalers (but this has not affected my Marlboro Heavy intake) and some very nasty painkillers and anti-inflammatories for arthritis.

I try not to take the painkillers every day as they can be habit forming apparently. Although how anyone can get hooked on nausea & vertigo is beyond me.
