Guest guest Posted October 24, 2003 Report Share Posted October 24, 2003 Well... I've been so busy that it would have had to of been immaculate conception! Besides that I've been pretty darn regular and am I belive on about day 10? of my cycle so nope not that. As far as the " take with food " med, it's the glucophage. I tend to take it right before going to bed, and I can't eat then because of my GERD that I'm taking nexium for. I take all of my once a day meds at night (5 different ones, six pills), and then the glucophage again mid morning. Anyhow... gotta go clean a bit... I messed up the cake for tomorrow, I handled it while it was too warm trying to rush things along a little, and it crumbled, so I called wal-mart to the rescue and for *only* $23 I can have the cake I need by tomorrow. Oh well, one less stressor for me a who still thinks it would be nice to have another one at times, but *must* be insane for even thinking that!

I thought that one had to be take first thing in the morning, something to do with blood levels of the med to coincide with your meals? Nevermind - I see it's twice a day (below) >I take all of my once a day meds at > night (5 different ones, six pills), and then the glucophage again > mid morning. What I said above goes for *any* once-a-day meds. Back in nursing school's pharmacy classes were were always told an order for a medication once a day is *always* first thing int he morning unless specified by the doctor or pharmacist to take otherwise. Obviously something liek a sleeping pill would be once a day at bedtime, but pressure pills, heart pills, and all that are best taken in the morning, usually. >I messed up the cake for tomorrow, > I handled it while it was too warm trying to rush things along a > little, and it crumbled, This is the one that's just for the kids, right? Can't it be fixed by using a little extra frosting as glue? >Oh well, one less stressor for me But one extra temptation, for now you'll have a *third* cake floating around the house.

The others are nexium and singulair that Specifies to take at night, though I'm not sure why. I figure if they are once a day and are " supposed " to last 24 hours then I don't worry as long as it is 24 hours apart. I also worry with my BP meds that if I take it in the morning that my BP will drop too low during the day and I'll get more light headed then I already am. I figure if it hits it's peak while I'm asleep then I don't worry about it *as* much, though I know my BP is already lower when I sleep, so who knowes. I just know I do better remembering them at night then I do in the morning. > > little, and it crumbled, > > This is the one that's just for the kids, right?

Oh when I say crumbled I mean crumbled.... it was way tooo warm to be handling as much as I was, I really should have waited longer, but I was trying to move it out of the pan to the cooling rack so it would cool faster...... the pot holders slid off the pan and the pan slid and it kind of " fell " to the cooling rack and just crumbled into a bunch of pieces. Oh well.... and nope it isn't anything I'll have to worry about since it is going in the trash... WHY you say? well...... I got the other cake all decorated and left it on the counter, then went to the party with the girls (forgot to get pic's will get them on halloween), when we got home we had found the kittens had gotten into that cake as well..... We found a part of it that didn't have an signs of cat licks or bites and put candles onit and each had a small piece. The rest is in the tras as well. We are trying to water train the cats to keep off the table or counter, but no one was home and they were bad! If we can't get them to improve they will be outdoor cats! > But one extra temptation, for now you'll have a *third* cake floating around > the house.
