Forgot 2-3 eye drops as well.

about
the average of 9. On really bad days it'll go to around 12. But mostly 7-9.(All for pain...or issues related to the pain..like sleep.)

Some interesting numbers.The average seemed around 15 maybe.
Most all of us are prescribed pills we don't take everyday,but just that I've been told by my Doctors to take all these pills is a trip.
I'm supposed to take 4,368 pills a year.

This question needs clarification I think...
When you say "how many pills a day"...
Do you mean how many different medications?
Or do you mean if we added up all the pills we take of each medication per day?
Just curious...cause looking at the answers so far it looks like the question is being interpreted a few ways. Lol.
