Hi wildflowerchild. Yes, I also have the Medisafe reminder app on my phone and it is usually helpful. I guess on occasion my phone isn't with me, so I don't hear what I call "rattlesnake". If I am caught up with things, that can sometimes be a factor, too. And it's easy for me to get hyperfocused on other things. Normally I can also remember because I have my pill boxes right near my seat at my kitchen table, and I try to take them during meals. But again, sometimes all of those cues fail.

It's interesting how some miss the morning meds more than evening. As said, I'm the opposite. And yet, if I miss the morning once in a while, nothing happens. If I miss the evening even once, it's a bigger deal. I eventually figure it out.
