I use little Tupperware containers. Fill every morning. Those little pill boxes are too small for all my supliments. Takes about 5 minutes.. But it makes me get up and move.

sherbo&lucindabedwell, the only ones that get this are the ones going through it. yes PD really sucks!

I don't know what happened today. @A MyParkinsonsTeam Member always gives me my medicines at 7:00 a.m. 1:00 p.m., and 7:00 p.m. Sometimes I remember and sometimes he remembers. Today, I thought about my afternoon medicine which is only my Rytary, but it was only 12:30. I had tired myself out at the computer and went back to bed. I don't remember much else until 4:something when my husband told me that I needed to answer my phone which was sounding off right next to me. My son was calling to ask for help getting his car towed to a mechanic. After the phone call, I asked Bart if I had taken my afternoon Rytary. I had not. Neither of us know what distracted us. Bart reminded me that I did eat lunch. I remember what I ate, and that I finished it, which is not always the case, but I don't know what time that was. Now, it is 12:42 a.m. and I can't sleep.

Lately I’ve been doing the same thing. I set my alarms on my phone to take my meds on time But then I went to depend on hearing it and sometimes I’m not in range so I forgot to take my pills and I’m all screwed up parkinson’s sucks And I feel like no one understands.

Great question Donna !
In my case about two minutes max
