How you gonna make lifestyle changes without permission from your lords and masters who write your paychecks?
The surgeon and intake nurse both independently double-checked that my list was complete. They told me that it's almost unheard of for someone of my age to have no ongoing prescriptions and they wanted to be sure a mistake wasn't made.
I was very surprised by this. I was even more surprised when I surveyed my friends and discovered that every single one of them has at least one ongoing prescription.
I had no idea!

I had surgery last year, and had to give a list of the medications I currently take. My list had a single item, OTC allergy medication. The surgeon and intake nurse both independently double-checked that my list was complete.
