I hate taking pills

Only 4, man I basically require anti-inflamitorys then I take vitiams, msm/gucosimine (or however you spell it), flax seed oil, and fish oil. Thats at least 6 pills a day, normally more like 8 (If I have to take anti-inflamitorys in the eve).

I pop about 4 pills a day for weight lifting. But it takes me around a minute(sometimes longer) to actually swallow a single pill.

Multi's or larger pills usually take me a second to "position" to swallow them. Be thankful you can do it though, I remember when I couldn't at all.

Just swallow all 4 at once. It's easier than you think, and that is the real problem - you are thinking about it.

I know, I put the pill in my mouth, and I have to psych myself up before I swallow it. I just sit there and concentrate with the damn thing in my mouth. And I get really pissed when people are laughing or talking loudly around me when im trying to concentrate.

You're wasting your money taking fish oil and flax seed oil. You only need one, and I recommend the fish oil. I stopped taking the fish oil because the cycle Im on right now conflicts with it, but in a month or so, I'll start taking them again.

thats skillz with a Z, becuse it's l33t to swallow pillz!
 
For my Crohn's, I'm on four Pentasa, an Iron pill, a Multivitamin, a Pro-Biotic, and a Calcium tab. That's 10 (vitamin & pro-biotic are 2 each) just for breakfast, and I have to do the Pentasa four times a day (22 total).
The wife has the same as above plus about 15 more for depression, kidney, and heart problems. She has three of those weekly pill boxes that have morning, noon, night, and bed sections - fully loaded.
Be glad you don't have her regimen; it would take you all day!

not exactly.... unless you're buying omega-3 fortified flax seed oil, you'll want to take both.

just buy omega-3 fortified flax seed oil and be done with it.

that's disgusting.

your wife doesn't need all those pills. she's a big pharma cash cow.

why doesn't she try alternative health care before she downs 15 health-deteriorating, symptom-causing, bullsht pills?
 
You think pills are bad? Needles are what are bad. I'm trypanophobic, and I tried to go through with a blood test this morning---I probably have acid reflux, but the symptoms of that and of pre-diabetes are very similar, and both diseases run in my family---but the drugs my doctor prescribed to calm me down (Xanax and something else) failed to suppress the behavior. Miserably.

Compared to injections, pills are heavenly.
