Thanks, pill boxes are all over....I have them laying all over the house...LOL. I still have problems taking stuff, because my stomach rebels.

Are they the talking kind? We are looking for the talking ones, you set to remind forgetful people to take their pills.....

If I had a talking one....I would whack it with a hammer....I know when to take my pills....I just puke them up some days.

The pill containers, however, are really good ideas. How often do we wake in the night and wonder....hmm, when did I take that last dose of pain meds???

For me, when I wake up at night, it is a project.
First I am in pain...then I gotta get the courage to move....
then I move....
then I recover....
then I hit the touch light....
then my eyes are stuck shut....
gotta get eye drops to see....
then I figure just for good measure I better put on the glasses to see exactly which pill I am taking....
then I take it....then it gets stuck....more water....then I gotta get up to walk to get it to go down....
then I have to pee...
then I have to get back into bed and I still hurt...gotta get up the courage to sit on the bed...then lay down....
then take 5 pillows and adjust myself...
then I don't like that....then I have to roll over....
then it takes 2 or 3 more hours to fall asleep, more eye drops,
just when hubby gets up at 5am...and I realize I need another pain pill
UGH...

I dont think they have enough slots for me.

To sleep the night....one darn night.
