I wouldn't worry about taking multiple meds, if you have a good pdoc. I do much better with a small amount of several meds than a lot of any one. It's just a matter of getting the mix right, which really takes an expert and some trial and error.
I think that one of the most unfortunate strategies is the "magic med" approach -- the idea that one medication will fix everything. That may work for some people, but many just suffer needlessly from side effects etc, without getting proper relief. I know -- I tried that for quite a few years before I found the right pdoc.
