Didn’t you see Caspiana’s medications the other day? We will enter you for the Meds Olympic Team GB and see if we can beat the Japanese. Close finish I reckon.

Lots of love

I started out after my transplant taking 72 pills a day. I'm now 'down' to 42 almost 2 1/2 years later. They are critical to survival after transplant! Sorting them out is my weekly -- chore !

I detest every tablet I take, which now totals 9 (5 of which are to make up the dose of one medication - tablet doses and all that). I scowl as I top up my weekly pill pot.

A while ago, whilst whinging at the research focus group someone mentioned I could have the pharmacist make up dosset boxes. That horrified me more than anything!

Anyway, as 2 of my meds are hospital dispenses, I don't think the pharmacist prepared dosset boxes would work.

I see I have some way to go before I'm competitive in this one. :)

Keep on keeping on Mrbojangles . you've had a lot to cope with.
