A fun poll?

Hi Gals.

I was just thinking the other day how some things have gotten so much easier since I started alternative treatment for endo. One is swallowing pills! I take 10 pills a day (down from 18, but nowhere near Lori's daily regimen of 27!), 5 in the am and 5 in the pm. Three are a little bigger than a standard capsule (like motrin) and the other two are GIANT horse pills. Well I used to gag a bit when I took some pills but now I can take all 5 in one gulp with no problems at all.

I don't mean to make this a contest on who takes the most or who can swallow the most pills at once (because that can be dangerous--no swallowing 27 pills at once, Lori), but I was just wondering if there were things that have become easier for any of you as a result of dealing with endo treatment?

Ciao,
Melanie

IT ID FUNNY THAT YO SAY THAT. I USED TO NOT BE ABLE TO SWALLOW PILLS I USE TO HAVE TO PUSH THEM DOWN MY THROAT OR CRUSH. KNOW HEAR I AM SWALLOWING A FEW AT A TIME. I ALSO USED TO BE SKIDDISH OF NEEDLES. KNOW I TAKE THAT LUPRON SHOT AND B12 LIKE NO BIG DEAL.I ALSI HAVE A BETTER ATTITUDE TOWARDS PEOPLE THAT ARE ILL AND THAT MIGHT BE THE ONE GOOD THING OUT OF MY ENDO IS COMPASSION FOR SICK PEOPLE.....

Hi Melanie,

What has become easier?

Shots: giving myself shots-hey no problem.

Eating: I was not good at eating all day like I am supposed to be(hypoglycemia). I would eat healthy but certainly not like this-almost perfection!

Pills: At the last Dr., I was swallowing mud like disgusting herbal tonics that were horrendous so it is way easier for me with this Dr., to go to pills.
Before the programs I would gag like both of you when having to take just 1 vitamin.

I can do anything through Christ who gives me strength.

Thanks for the question Melanie!
Lori
