Today, in preparation for a presentation at work, I decided to take a handful of vitamins to fight my cold. As I was putting the bottles away, I noticed one of them was a laxative. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I woke up with the worst cold, ever. My nose was running like crazy and my eyes were all puffy. So I stumbled over to the medicine cabinet and took what I thought were three tylenol cold's. Two hours later I'm still sick and I can't leave the bathroom. They were laxatives. FML
Today, just like everyday, I opened my med box, took out a blister pack and took one of the pills before putting the pack back in the box. Today, not like everyday, I had diarrhea. Turns out one of the packs was laxatives put in my med box by my boyfriend because they looked the same as my meds. FML
Today, I was cruising with a coworker and his friend, and I started getting tired. His friend offered me a caffeine pill. It wasn't caffeine. It was laxatives. FML
Today, I was given a bottle of vitamins that are supposed to help your memory. I forgot them at home. FML
Today, a lady stormed into the pharmacy I work at and chewed me out because the medicine I sold her the day before gave her horrible diarrhea as a "side effect". I checked, and it was the medicine she asked for - laxatives. FML
Today, I accidentally took an Ex Lax instead of an Immodium. It's gonna be a fun night. FML
Today, I left my desk to go to the bathroom. I arrived back at my desk to a large package of SlimQuick packets. Guess my coworkers think I need to lose weight. FML
Today, I was looking in the refrigerator for something to drink. I found a jug of lemonade with a piece of paper on it saying "Mom's Lemonade, Don't Drink!" I was really thirsty, so I ignored it and drank the whole jug. My mom is about to have a colonoscopy and had filled it with laxatives. FML
Today, at work in a call center, I went into my locker to get my pain pills from a recent surgery. When I opened the bottle, half my pills spread all over the floor. My boss walked by and said, "I knew it!" FML
Today, I discovered that the wintergreen breath mints I've been taking for a week now, are actually circular, flavored, white and green laxatives. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

You deserve it for thinking that vitamins help to cure a cold. Guess what, you take vitamins and your cold goes away in a few days. You do nothing and your cold goes away in a few days. I have no clue why people think they can expedite the process. Plus, who takes pills without identifying them first??!?

Your well prepared presentation is not the only thing you'll be dropping on them.

Someone already pointed that out. They could have happened on different days though. When you post a story, you have to start with "today", and maybe they had just discovered FML and posted several stories from several days all at once.

because there's totally medical proof that vitamins will cure your cold faster. hate to break it to you, but stuff like vitamin C works better as a preventative measure, i.e. if you have a sufficient amount of vitamin C in your body, your immune system may function better than if you have a vitamin c deficiency. so in the short term, dosing up on it will only turn your urine orange. the only thing you can do for a cold once you've got it is rest, drink water, and try to fight the symptoms with decongestants, throat lozenges and paracetamol/ibuprofen/asprin for fever/headache, etc. also you're pretty careless for not checking what you're taking.
