Nice to be home. When you go to you clinic ask if they have a dispensing box for the pills. Those are useful and tend to be a bit bigger than the ones you get in the supermarket. They dont always have them at discharge, but you can usually get one at the clinic.

Fantastic stuff! Bet there were more than a few “Phews” said or thought when you finally sat down together 👍.

Insulin taking shouldn’t last too long 🤞- speaking from own experience.

Good luck

Delighted you’re both home!! I can remember that feeling as I was stood by the fruit stalls and a very very slow walk to the car, but it felt amazing. You’ll have the pills mastered in no time.

Well done both of you.

The amount of pills will drop as time goes on, must be taken 12 hours apart, I've got an app on my phone to remind me, haven't missed a dose in 5 1/2 years, remember not to take tacrolimus on day of clinic visit.Hilary

Excuse me clarifying - If you're having a 'hematology blood test' take Tacrolimus after blood taken. For non blood test consult/clinic take as normal.
