 Anyone else feel like all they do all day is take vitamins? I made an excel spreadsheet for the month of July and I check off what I take during the day. Does it ever feel like it is ot to much?

I don't feel like it's all I do anymore.  It was a couple years, honestly, before I felt like I got into a good routine and it got fairly easy for me.  I don't know why it took me that long, but it did.  Now, the only thing I sometimes have trouble with is my third dose of calcium.

In the early days, I tried to limit the number of pills I had to take as much as possible.  I used ENS for my multi and some of my calcium, Upcal D for the rest of my calcium, swtiched to B12 shots instead of sublinguals, etc.

I asked my dr if there was a shot I could take everyday that had all the vitamins in one, unfortunately he said not that he knew of!  Somebody needs to be figuring out one!!! I woudl rather give myself a shot than try to keep track of all of them! (would actually get them all in that way too, instead of forgetting!)

At the stage your at....yes.  However, after 3 months it is now like second nature.  I had to have reminders when I got back to work to remember to take my afternoon calcium.  Once that was a habit, then I was fine.

I used Outlook calendar to add a reminder to take the calcium mid afternoon.
