I take a ton of pills, but aside from laxatives, all of mine are prescription meds. I don't even want to count them.

I'm glad that you are feeling better right now

Maybe it's a good thing that you didn't see the naturopath since what you are taking right now seems to be working…

I bought 2 twice a day pill boxes to last for 2 weeks.
Last night I carefully filled them. The boxes are cheap from the dollar tree and can easily fall apart if not careful.
The containers were big enough to handle all of my rx meds and many of my supplements, so I am happy.
maybe i should look into more expensive pill boxes, I would really hate it if they fell apart....That would be disastrous!

You can just pick up a bag of big thick elastics to hold them together. They are reusable unlike tape.

But if you are looking for something better, I bought a twice daily pill minder at Walgreens that has HUGE slots. The thing is HUGE, but it has plenty of room for all my meds, OTCs, and then some. It wasn't that expensive, and I've never seen anything comparable to it anywhere.

Thank you kay!
I went to walgreens and bought 2- 2times a day pill boxes for 2 weeks.
I really like them. They sort of lock so that is great!
They were not as big as the cheap ones, had to remove the hot flash pills from AM and calcium from PM.
oh well I will just bring extra hot flash pills in another bottle and skip the calcium for 2 weeks.

I stopped taking the amino acids as I don't think they were helping me. My hot flashes have stopped so I stopped taking those supplements. I am still taking the lithium orotate because I do think that is helping my mood which is helping me be in better control. I am able to control what I eat and drink.
So that is good.
I just started taking tumeric with black pepper, maybe that will help with my memory issues????

I'm so glad that your hot flashes have stopped, and you feel like your mood has improved. You have been doing a lot better with impulse control
