LOL...I guess I'm one of the ones who "likes" to suffer. As I hate to take medication.

I don't believe in "suffering" so yes - I've been known to pop a few extra pain killers (particularly if I'm battling a migraine).

I am the same way. I hate to take them. I wait till things get real bad.
Now I'm on so many necessary medications that I really hate to take the unnecessary ones!

I loathe taking medicine and will only do so as a last resort. Whether it's a headache or a cold or whatever, I try to suffer through it without drugs. When I finally break down and take something for the occasional headache, I usually take three capsules at a time. One or two never cut it.

Sunny, oh yes, and Ibuprophen is a good example of one I used to

much last week when my lower back was in major pain..I was probably close to 1200 mg a day..I knew that was too much when my feet swelled up like I've never seen before (thats one of the side effects of overdosing on Ibuprophen)..

I've done the same with tylenol, too, but no ill side effects....

I know that you take so much in your life, sweetie.

Actually, the first time I had a migrane I called the doctor and they told me I could take up to three ibuprophen.

I know that high blood pressure prevents you from taking a lot of meds.

Really? That's odd. I will go check it.
I hate taking meds when not necessary.  I'm actually hoping my mother comes home from work on time, in case I have to go to the hospital. This headache is killing me.

Okay, first of all for some reason I can't comment in your other blog.

did you block me?  LOL  kidding.  Nice pic!  I'm actually getting tired of all you creative people!   Take that as a compliment.

second, I hate taking pills so the less I take the better off I am.

sunnybeach7, not since the onset of High BP. The kidneys are impacted by
Tylenol and Ibupropin.  Now I take one, after two years of nephro-therapy (treatment for the kidneys) when I really need it.

Read than in place of that .

I always take more that what I should not only meds but so many things in
life . My humble advise is that you should not take more of these medicines without a doctor's prescription . It may harm your health in general and leave side affects on your body.
