- sleeping aid (lately they love Ambien)
- which leads to a sleep study (at $4-5,000)
- diabetes, or pre-diabetes, medication
- and at least one more that is probably for the side effects of the above
and they want you to have them. NOW. |
You've left out medication for high blood pressure from your list along with proton pump inhibitors like Prilosec. It's horrifying. |
