Just after some quick advise, seniorish moment this morning and I forgot to take all my meds this morning before work :facepalm:. I've got spares of everything in my desk except Forgixa, do I take that when I get home tonight at about 5:30pm (normal med time 7-7:30am) or miss the dose totally and just take as normal tomorrow morning? BG not to bad at lunch 7.9 considering I've missed my main drug, but I am monitoring just in case it shoots up.

I would not take but check level before bed. Or if you do take the missed dose, keep very close eye on your levels tomorrow

Leave the meds till tomorrow as you would probably have to wait till tomorrow, this time to take your next lot, a days miss shouldn't be harmful

I was told that if I missed something then don't take two to catch up but just to miss out the forgotten one and pick up where you should have been with the next one.
