just curious if anyone has purposely skipped a dose of meds? i have forgotten once or twice and nothing happened. has anyone ever skipped a dose and become sick/flared? how many doses can you skip without getting sick?

A dose of what specifically?...we're all on a variety of medications.

As long as you don't make it a habit, I don't believe anything crucial will happen. However, be very careful of prednisone dosing. I had a friend who quit that cold turkey and developed Addison's Disease. You sure don't want that.

I often skip my next dose of beer or wine, but I try not to make it a habit--no pun intended.
