I have always felt that aside from Aspirin and some life sustaining drugs like thyroid hormone every drug would take a toll over the long term. For may though, the old "Quality of life" comes into play. Take the pill and be happy now and deal with the consequences later. When you are in enough pain it is not always the worst philosophy. I have never been able to embrace that though. As a parent, I worry about long term benefits. I have a lot I want to be able to see before I check out.

We have had a few family members with Alzheimer's and Dementia. My father was originally diagnosed with Huntington's Disease, but now his diagnosis has been changed to an "idiopathic neurological condition" or whatever nonsense his doctors came up with. He has strong elements of Dementia and he lacks emotional control. He is a handful for my mom.

I hope I draw the long straw and don't burden my family with this stuff.
