I have not been taken off my normal meds yet and have to crush 4 of my pills right now ..... I hate it too!! They make me gag so I started taking them with a flavored drink like my protein shake or a glass of skim milk to help take my mind off the taste.
I had mine on April 18th, I am almost 3 weeks out and I worry that I am doing things wrong.....I have a great outside support system but felt like I needed to join here for support too.
