Pill-Popping Patient

Take this pill for blood pressure
  take that one for nerves
This one'll help you fall asleep
  that one, weight management serves

Doc, can I lower my blood pressure
  through a pill-free diet
You may be skeptical, but
  this pill-popping patient
    would sure like to try it

Nothing wrong with trying to take life by the reigns and fix problems with your own efforts first! Best of luck to you

Good stuff, GW. I once (long time ago) had a doc prescribe a drug to put me to sleep at night and a drug to wake me up in the morning. Problem was I never was awake to take the morning dose!

Awesome! Don’t blame you! They wanted to increase my metformin. I said let me see what I can do first,
