I'm not sick of it, since I've just started, but I'm scared of it. I've never taken more than a few asprin or a BCP in my life; is this what it's going to be forever? All these pills, every day?
I'm totally sick of it, I am just now after a few years getting the hang of making sure I take them everyday. I had to buy a bigger pill box yesterday one for AM/PM, my other one couldn't fit all the pills I complain everyday while I take them tho. I am not a good pill person to begin with, they make me gag. I don't know if it will be that way forever, I am sure the number lessons after getting into a good lifestyle change of diet and exercise then I would think your body would get a little better, but I don't know and I am sure it is different for every person.

Well, I only take 2 Rx meds, but I do take a TON of supplements and I AM sick of those...love that I feel so much better since I've started taking them, but hate choking the down..some of them just taste nasty, lol. I have the jumbo pill box and I have to stack the pills in "just so" in order to be able to latch it closed!
i take 3 different medications and never wanted to take that much medication i also take fenugreek and black cohosh vitamins i don't have a problem with the vitamins but the other meds make me so sick sometimes and that gets annoying i recently switched from provera to prometruim and it still gives me bad side effects. I used to take prescription pain pills but now i can't because of my kidneys
I hear you. I take 4 different prescriptions as well as Claritin, vitamins, calcium and fish oil pills. They are not all for PCOS though. I take metformin, Yaz, Tricor and Advair. Oh, I have a rescue inhaler too. So I guess that makes 5 prescriptions. It seems like a lot but I have to remember that I've never been healthier than I am now so it's worth it.

I don't take that many pharmaceuticals (only Effexor, Singulair, and Albuterol), but as you see from my sig, I take many herbs/supplements. While it does become inconvenient from time to time, I haven't grown tired of taking them because I feel so much better on them. I also like feeling like I am helping myself to heal naturally. I was in denial about my PCOS diagnosis for a long time, so I'm actually excited to be doing something about it.

Thankfully, I don't have to take that many medicines. I probably should be, but I'm only taking Metformin and Spironolactone. (And Prilosec, but that's for GERD, not PCOS.)
Well I take Metformin 500mg 3 times a day (one before each time I eat), 200mg of Spironolactone, 5mg of Norvasc, 1 birth control pill, 1 15mg Phentermine, 4 1000 mg Omega 3 fish oil pills, and 2 Magnesium vitamins. Like I said, it sucks. lol
WOW I really need to stop complaining about the little bit of pill I have to shove down my throat when some of you have to take handfulls. Not sure how yall do it.
Anybody else sick of taking so much medicine? 
I complain everyday while I take them tho. I am not a good pill person to begin with, they make me gag. I don't know if it will be that way forever, I am sure the number lessons after getting into a good lifestyle change of diet and exercise then I would think your body would get a little better, but I don't know and I am sure it is different for every person.
but my hs is up at the moment - so i am taking another 5 mega doses on top of the usual.
