Yayahahahaya you have described me exactly my friend but sounds like you can get down there just a bit easier.
On the one hand it’s a sad state isn’t it .... on the other hand we both are still here to get ourselves in that mess to begin with ... that’s a good thing.
My morning miracle pill is 4 white egg shaped pills that cost about $100 apiece ( Xtandi). Like you said the magic eggs that keep me alive as well , if however debilitating.
It’s good news brother, we both are still here to savor a shiny new year and hopefully a whole new decade.
Best wishes brother Cisco
Btw: a few of those handy 3 ‘ “ helping hands “ grabbers placed at convenient location helps a lot. Lol
When I drop one of my Erleada pills I can get down there but getting back up is quite a challenge. Thanks to the stroke 5 and 1/2 years ago , gravity is the force which always rules. It seems that I must do it myself,having someone try to help just does not work.
I find that the more they cost, the farther that they travel. The cheap ones just lie there and look at you and say am I worth all the trouble to get this low.
Egg shape by far. I have a magical ability to drop a round edged flat sided tablet onto its round edge which allows it to roll into unimaginable places. Yayahahahaya
Under the table is preferable to fishing one out of the disposal in the sink. Yayahahahaya The big kitchen table a far better place. I learned that the hard way.
Good ideas. My wife likes me out of the kitchen. Clutter! Out of sight, really. I've settled on my desktop. I spill a couple every Monday when I put the week's little devils in my four-tier pill box.
I'll go down for a Zytiga, everything else costs less than a nickel!
Loved your post. All of us can identify in some way. I have just come up on one year on Xtandi so I have taken 1,460 of the caplets which amounts to $134,320 worth as billed to Kaiser/Medicare. My cost=$120 out of pocket. The only day I missed was when I prepped for a colonoscopy and I was too nauseated to take my daily dose.
The good news is that my PSA is now lower than that of either of my adult sons! It makes it easier to go chase that stray pill.
The laugh in our family is that I have an alarm set on my phone as a reminder every day at dinner hour. I almost never hear the alarm but everyone including my grandkids hear it immediately.
Still no bone mets and the ones in my lungs and abdomen are stable. Plenty to be thankful for especially modern research and good insurance coverage. We all need a few smiles daily!
We should set up a new community and take a survey of how many of us have the same problem of looking for expensive pills hiding in the carpeting. I have them drop and unable to find them and stand up and then find they were in my lap all the time. Getting down is not the problem is the getting up process that takes time. In the end, I am still glad I can do both actions some easy and some not so easy. But at least the pills are still keeping me here,
Yup. Remember to check your pants cuffs, if you have 'em. There's gold down there.
also, go through the vacuum cleaner bag when I fills. I found 50 cents once and another time a Butterfingers. I think it was a Butterfingers. We have a cat.
3 yrs earleada 400.00 a day...close to 500k....jnj paid....psa just starting to climb....i can get down cant get up w/o help.....leg muscles have atrophied to zilch...but i can walk to the refrigerator....
Wasted away again, searching for my lost Xtandi, some people claim there's a cat to blame. Now I think ... hell it could be my fault.
I drop pills constantly. I take only four pink adt pills per day . Times five years . I also take many nutrients throughout the day and night . I’m shaky in the morning the worst. It’s one of the questions that they ask me on my tri monthly report . Do you drop any thing like pills . I always answered yes . They stopped those questions a couple of years ago. I think it might be typical behavior for a castrated bastard . Speaking for myself . What once made us men now will put us under . No irony in that?
I have to focus on individual tasks. One thing at a time. When I combine them with my former grace, cups and saucers break, keys get dropped, cupboard doors hit me in the head.
Ouch. No joke! I’m accident prone now . I’m also Uber sensitive to pain . A sensitive bitch is me . Male menopause for life!! , I saw my mom flipping out hormonally and at timeS I thought I was turning into her . We be in touch with our feminine sides. Not all bad if we use the best of them ( compassion and caring) .. Take care🌵
