Medication watch Re: Tired of feeling tired

[Guest guest]

This might seem unrelated, but a long story about how my stress level

went up is the connection, I won't bore you with the details. But

here's one of the culprits:

CONFIG=mountain&CHANGE=YES&NEXTPAGE=cadex.htm&CODE=172

I just ordered a new one (what happened to the old one is a stress

source), does anyone else have one? You can list your meds, what

time to take them, and also include some medical info, I think like

medical conditions, and doctors names and phone numbers. I'm lucky I

don't have trouble affording meds, but I forget to reorder them and

forget to take them, so this watch may help.

Take care,
