Q: missed meds after kidney transplant

I don't know how it happened that I missed my morning meds, but my pill box proves that I did. I went ahead and took my regular evening dose. But it's the weekend and I can't call my post transplant coordinator or doctors. Has anyone had this happen? What happened to you? It's been 8 weeks since my transplant and so far everything has been excellent.

remembering meds and other good stuff

thank you for the replies. it's now been a year and 2.5 months. I have never forgotten any of my meds since my post. Having an iPhone that dings to remind me each time it is time for meds has helped a lot. i count each day as a blessing and live it with an embrace. God's blessing to you.
ps today I just aquired some new way for reminders...
