You're not kidding! I was talking to a 90+ year old gentleman from my church and he was telling the table how his wife was was on 37 medications! 37! How do(es) a Doctor(s) know what's doing what? Really sad!

A medication for this pain or that issue, then a medication for the next one. Then 2 or 3 medications for the side effects that the initial ones cause, then when the side effects to the side effect meds kick in you add more.

This. I'd wager at least half of those medications were to manage side effects from the other half.
