maybe its the lack of your ‘greenery’ that caused the forgetfulness – maybe it works the other way round for you :groucho:

:hopeless: have tried that too,not same kind of medicine,but it scared the hell out of me too..

You could have a small note in your car so you look at it every time you put the key in….

Have your mobile send you a reminder every night about 8 before you go to work..I have 😉

Please try and take it easy :weee:

doesnt it take several days to stabalise in the bloodstream? so even a screw up like this wont blow out the results totally?

have a another mate who takes it and my understanding of what he told me about it was that it builds up gradually in your blood?

might be worth checking with your medic WRT that :crazy:

You are right raj, but i am so unstable that any mess up means weekly blood tests for while. oh well.
I’m on 8ml normally so as i missed last night ive taken 10 ml and this should stabilise me to about my normal inr level (most people are kept at 2 – 3.5, im kept at 2.5 – 4):head_bang
