I was perfectly on time this morning when I woke up (which is rare) and everything was going smoothly until my routine was interrupted due to a phone call from my Mom and I forgot to take my meds before work.
I didn’t realize I did until about an hour into my shift and something felt off. I had doubts as I was getting ready for work but my doc said to never take extra. (Edit: and remembering what it was like going from 40mg to 60mg I definitely didn’t want to accidentally take 2)
I was a bit too scattered (best way to describe it) and even my coworker noticed I was a lot more talkative than usual.
And then it hit me, I didn’t remember taking my meds in the morning and saying the date.
By 4 hours into my shift my stomach felt off, and by the 9th hour I had a headache creeping in.
Unfortunately I got home within 12 hours (more like 10) of when I normally take my meds, so I’ve got to wait.
On the plus side I bought a pill organizer today so it’ll be easier to know if I missed my dose as I will be able to see if I did or not pretty easy.
Apple Health’s reminders have been a godsend, especially the annoying as fuck alert if you don’t log your medication within half an hour of your scheduled time. I never found pill organizers helpful, but I hope this one works for you.
This is what I do. Reminds in the morning, I have it set to when I should be int he kitchen having breakfast etc.
I have mine set to when I feed my cats, so I’m already in my kitchen anyway.
