Don't feel bad, Christina. I take more meds than some of the residents at the assisted-living facility where I work! Not only meds for my BP, but blood pressure, arthritis, asthma, and diabetes.
I have to laugh a bit when I think about myself in about 20 years when I'll probably need assisted living myself........
nobody will want to take care of me, what with diagnoses of bipolar disorder, alcoholism, anxiety, diabetes, neuropathy and fibromyalgia.
