So... I forgot to take my MTX, Friday evening. I was wondering if I should take it now, or just wait until Saturday?If me I'd be taking it Now Joonie.

AND something that I was going to post a bit earlier

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Joonie, I know what it is like to be different and to be judged that way.
All my life I have felt as if I do not fit in, in fact I have been told so.
I see things differently from what is considered normal in current society.

Sure it is difficult at times trying to conform to what others expect and at times demand.
I'm near double your age and things have not changed except that I have learned to except my differences.
It can be lonely at times for sure.

As an example and more so when I was a little younger than now. I'd be with a group of blokes and the main conversation would be women, grog and what they did with there four wheel drives.
If I tried to steer the conversation into what they thought the meaning of life was all about, well, I'd be met with a blank stare and told to have another can.
I can only remain in this situation for a few hours max, and have to exit.

Just the exit would bring some snide remarks, "Oh Steve has to go to bed so he can be up with the birds in the morning"
I just did not fit, I'd rather be up at sparrow fart to witness the dawning of a new day while they spent  the whole day feeling the affects from all the grog the night before.

The people that want to attack you are not worth it Joonie.
  Stephen...you are very right.

 
{{{{huggles Joonie}}}}  will be in touch sweetie, hope you got to eat HEAPS of hotdogs!!
Buckeye - Will do! Thanks!I've forgotten my inj of Mtx before; it's just so hard, it only not being once a week and not a pill I could just put into the right day of my week-pills holder. I think I'd better put a note on my new pill holder like I did before; I just can't trust myself.  I too, think it's ok to take a day late, so take it today.  Maybe like me, you should put a note with your daily meds too.
 
forgot to say, please don't go... just talk to all the nice people here

Dunno what to do this time, but definitely talk to your doctor and pharmacist so you know what to do if you should forget to take it again.

I wrote it down on my sheet of paper of questions last night. I will be asking her. I know I skipped it one week a month or so back because I thought I was getting a sinus infection, but it subsided and I resumed the next Fridays dose.

This time I just completely forgot about taking it with me, because I did not have to carry around my Ultram bottle with me to in-laws, as I did not need pain meds or a muscle relaxer.
