[QUOTE="flutterby, post: 342459, member: 7083"] I can't use a pill minder. I get too confused when trying to fill it. And once you have the pills out of the bottle, it's hard to figure out what is what. After double dosing and no dosing myself a couple times, I stopped. However, I have my pill bottles in a basket on the counter and they are always lined up in the same order. I just realized the other day that I hadn't been taking my statin for about a week or so because someone messed with my lineup. I made sure to let everyone know that while I appreciate them cleaning, they just can't touch my medications. As long as they are there and in the right order, I'm ok. I even group them a certain way when I get them out to make sure I have them all. IOW, I can understand how it can be hard for husband to do. It sounds like such a simple task - filling a medication minder - but when you have a lot of medications, it can be really confusing. Especially if you get interrupted. That said, I do know what medications I'm on and why. I have confirmed cognitive issues and get lost driving, suffer from CRS, etc. I do think he could take a bit more interest into what he's taking and why and when. Slowly. I'm really glad the stimulant didn't activate him. That could have been really bad. [/QUOTE]
