artluvr09 Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 I can't believe I forgot my meds this morning! I forgot my b2 which helps prevent migraines, My atenolol which helps my heart race and palpitations, and my other vitamins. I never forget my meds! No wonder I am feeling foggy today. Just feel really strange without my meds. Very tired all day. I don't take my dinner meds which has atenolol and b2 until 8 pm!! Has anyone else done this? It bothers me that I completely forgot them and i have t hem in their weekly pill things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debbie Rose Posted January 10, 2016 Report Share Posted January 10, 2016 Oh YES.... forget them at least once if not twice a week and I have tried everything!! I now must sit on my bed before I get out of bed and take them before I do anything else.I have been successful 5 days in a row. Even harder is my evening pill I must take with 360 calories of food-that's even harder -miss it every 3rd day or so. My foggy brain and fatigue issues short circuit my memory almost every day. My pills are in a 30 day pill box and now sits next to my bed...so far so goodIts hard to find a good reminder-some use cell phone alarm clock and it worksGood luckDebbie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faye Posted January 10, 2016 Report Share Posted January 10, 2016 Oh my! It hasn't happened yet, but I a sure it will....coming off my beta blocker to do TTT was awful, even now being back on I have high HR sometimes.... Hope you could breath thru, lay down and rest to get through till your next dose... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lewis Posted January 10, 2016 Report Share Posted January 10, 2016 I can't remember if I had taken them ten seconds after I just took them and usually take then again. I got a routine now that has been mostly successful. I take my water bottle out of the fridge for night needs and put it back in after morning meds.

looneymom Posted January 10, 2016 Report Share Posted January 10, 2016 I have 6 alarms set on my cell phone to remind me when to give Tyler his medications and supplements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ANCY Posted January 10, 2016 Report Share Posted January 10, 2016 Sorry that happened to you! Because that did happen to me before on occasion i use an app on my phone that is designed as a virtual pillbox. (I dislike the design of most pillboxes because of my crazy dosing schedule.) I have found it very helpful in several ways. The best being i set up my schedule once telling it when i take what and it sets the alarms. It alarms several times until I tell it i took my meds or im skipping the dose, and I have that option for each of the meds Im taking at that time. also it tracks how many doses I have left before I need to order more and gives me 6 day advanced warning, something I really needed. Running out of my midodrine is never good! AN added bonus is I always have a list of my meds & dosing with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
