It's a hard decision to make. The anxiety meds, I usually just go without, but this one I don't want to risk it.

Sunny, if its a med you've been taking for a long time, you have lots of it
in your blood stream, and missing a dose will have no ill effect..if its a new med, I'd definitely call a pharmacist...

I forget sometimes but I either count the pills or let it go till time for the next dose. I'm a type 2 diabetic but I do not know what your medicine is .. I would call a pharmasist, they are usually very willing to answer questions.
I see your clock says Pittsburgh. I grew up right outside of Pittsburgh but I've been gone since 1963. We are having a High Scool reunion in a few weeks but I don't think I'll be attending because all my classmates have aged so much.

I've done this before...I think you'll be okay.
I'm pretty sure a double dose of synthroid won't hurt you. Who knows?

I don't even know what synthroid is...I am guessing ...is it something you take for thyroid?

I have forgotten to take my meds more times than I can count. The thing is....often I can't "remember" whether I took them or not. That's the really bad thing.

perhaps one of those daily meds dispenser containers could help?
each compartment is labeled, monday, tuesday, etc. you fill the thing at the beginning of each week. if monday is empty that means you took your pills.

I am not sure about synthroid but I sometimes can't remembeer if I've taken my meds and have used the same reasoning as you about higher doses. I take lisinopril, metoprolol, lasix and zoloft.

Stored? No. LOL. I think it would be much easier just to dial it, than to try to remember how and where I stored it.
