Yup, I get the info sheet to. Worthless to me, and it has all my personal info on it also. I'm probably living in fantasy world thinking anybody who finds the bottle with the label would give two flyin' hoots, but whatever.
I've had as many as 5 bottles/day before. I'm at three right now.

After walking around in tears in public all the time I figure they all know what's wrong with me - the only thing left to know is if I'm being treated and with what. I might feel differently if I had the option of keeping it private.

I'd save the empty bottles for when I had time to remove the labels and suddenly I'd have this huge pile spilling out all over everything. At that point it became easier to decide to just dump them and hope for the best. Either that or wait for a night I felt really obsessive. (I have a pile right here that is almost ready for one fate or the other now. )
