Did you take your meds today?

[renaeden]

I went to the psychiatrist and now I'm on 3, 2 and 2. An increase of one pill in the morning. Wow. Guess I'll just have to deal with it.

Ren- hows the new med regimen working out?

I took my med this morning.

It's going to be a very long day today, so I'll be taking my last dose of two at about 6:30pm.

Woke up too late to take my meds this morning. Good thing is it doesn't happen very often.

Took my AM meds. :]

[renaeden]

Just took afternoon dose of dex.

Just took my AM meds about 20 minutes ago. A bit late, but I slept in.

Often I used to wake up too late to take my meds. But I always got up early to feed the cats and then go back to bed. So I started taking my morning meds (with the exception of dexamphetamine) after I fed the cats, usually at 7:30 - 8am. And then go back to bed and have some more sleep if I could. Mondays and Fridays I have to get up at 8am anyway.

The PR and I have gotten into the bad habit of sleeping in.  She wakes naturally about 1 p.m.  This of course plays havoc with medications.  She'll take them sometime within an hour or so of waking up and expect to take the evening meds around 9 p.m.  Recently she's been having some schizophrenia symptoms again, but I'm not sure if it's medication related or just social situations.

I wake up between 9 and 10 a.m.  Usually forgot to take my meds until much later in the day.  So I just take them about 6 to 7 p.m.  Works better for the sleeping pills since they take about 4 hours to kick in.

Ah the joys of retirement and unemployment (definitely NOT on the horizon for the PR).

When I get up to pee, sometimes I'll take my meds then, depending on what time it is. But it so happens that the cats are as good as an alarm clock so I can depend on them. This morning Kira and Liam were play fighting on my bed, all over my legs. Couldn't stay asleep with that going on.

Today I've had a few Quick-Eze, really bad reflux. I'm going for the Nexium at the chemist tomorrow, can't handle this.

Sorry to hear that about reflux ren.

The cats sound really cute though. ^_^

Just took evening meds.

Recently we changed my dosages around and swapped out a new drug, and I've been having a hellish few days. Just terrible, and today I left work early. Had a night mare of incredibly realistic proportions this afternoon. Well, we swapped my side effect meds back and are going to see if this works. So far I feel mildly better. Not sure if its a placebo effect at this point, but anything is better than what I was feeling before.

It can take a while to get medication types and dosages just right for you. Here's hoping that it's very soon for you. Having that can set you right for years.

I am hopeful! :] I had not thought about it like that.

So far today has been much better (albeit some residual nausea). In another week the levels should be up in my blood with the new dose and I will know if its good.

Took my PM meds.
