Default Made a mistake, but wow I am not sure how to keep from making it again.

I got lucky I didn't do this for more days than maybe two. I'm just
not sure how long I've been making this mistake. I know I replaced
the gabapentin medicine that was out on Wednesday night or Thursday
morning but not sure which.

I made the mistake of not double checking I guess which bottle I had.
I forgot that I had a extra bottle of medformin. And the two pills look
alike. But the really big problem is, I seem to have two different
manufacturers of medformin and didn't know this.
Ugh, so I've until last night, when I just luckily looked down at the
bottle. And didn't make the mistake of taking extra was taking
extra medformin.

But one of the biggest problems is that I seem to have been taking it
in the mornings too.

I am okay this morning. And got through last night, by making sure
I had extra sugar in my system. I had thought it odd the night
before that I needed M & M's or other candy.

And the night before that too, now I know why. I've always done what
my body told me too. So wow, but I'm lost as to how to make sure
I don't do this again.

I also am not sure what the signs of overdose would have been. But
my meter needs new unexpired strips.

I need to call my doctor, I had asked for them. But they never got
ordered. Now its a have too. Last night I found out what happens
when they expire. Luckily it wasn't life and death. I was just
going to double check it.
