BP, do you have Outlook or some other email program that has a calendar associated with it? If you do, you can program that calendar to remind you to take your meds at a certain time every day.

Also, I'm sure that several of us here will try, but it will be best if you can establish a routine for yourself to help remind yourself. But for tonight, what if you changed your status message to "Take my meds at 11pm"--that way you'll remind yourself! :-) Or, write a journal entry to remind you--so when you log onto DS you'll see it.

OR- try putting the melatonin (Right now, before you forget), on your pillow. (In something obvious so you won't lose it). Or put it on/near your computer.

I only have outlook express 6.......I wouldn't even begin to know where the calendar is on that thing so I don't know how to program it.....but I do have a computer calender I will look at that.

Princess

Good idea! BTW, Outlook Express 6 is pretty easy, so if you wanted to spend 4 or 5 minutes in the help guide, you'd see how to set it up. But I'm glad you have another method!

Hey Princess- use your alarm on your DS.

I love your new status! Good job! :-)

Or your cell phone.

Gemi, we have alarms??

Nope no calendars with a reminder thingy on it.....

Dunno what to do.

I have a nintendo DS and you apparantly can set alarms on it or some such thing but that would mean I would have to leave it on all night right?

Just turn it on after dinner and close it without shutting off the power. The alarm will sound and your battery shouldn't run out because you're not using the screens- which is the biggest battery suck on the DS.

Oh *that* DS! :-)

i used to forget my meds all the time. i now have an alarm set on my mobile phone that goes of twice a day. i haven't missed a med in ages... give it a go : )

i have just noticed that others have suggested your phone. sorry to repeat advice. : )

Right now it's charging......I will leave it plugged in to the power charger when I turn it on......I might play it a little while today before or after I turn the alarm on I will just remember to turn the alarm back on when done playing.....

I'll do it princess.....since no one else wants too...anything I can do to help....but you'll have to tell me what time zone your in
