Watch Out!

It has been necessary to refill several prescriptions since we returned to Vermont.  One of them came in two bottles with a note that suppliers had changed so the pills, though the same dosage, looked different.  I found that out for myself this morning when I was apportioning the pills into the little pill box I use to keep track of which pills to take when.

Really there was no problem until I put the little round pill in the middle into the bottle with the same color oval pills on the left.  THEY ARE NOT THE SAME PRESCRIPTION!!! Fortunately I noticed the bottle before I closed up shop on the project.

The little light green round pill is the same as the bright green oval pill.  I did get them pulled out of the other bottle and now all is well. I am not sure what might have happened if I had left them as I had mis-mixed them, BUT now I don't have to worry.

So...be watchful when you are doing your pills.  Probably a better idea would be to get into perfect health so no pills are necessary. I am working on that.  At least I am working on it after a fashion.  Being home it has been a joy to be with beloved friends and family.  We often meet and eat.  I have not gotten the habit of very little food yet, but the last few days have noted that as I have been too busy to do much eating the blood sugar has been much happier.  May this continue...
