So, here’s a classic “Only bloody Kiwi” moment — I accidentally took half the dose of my Hydroxycarbamide meds for two weeks without realising. In this episode, I walk you through those early hospital visits at Hammersmith, the awkward “How have you been?” chats with doctors, and the “Oops, sorry Doc” moment when the mistake came out. I’ll share the fun side too — like curry nights in my bedroom with mates — and the tough stuff, like sleepless nights and feeling utterly helpless being signed off work for months. Plus, the bit where the doc drops some wisdom that actually sticks: you can’t control the numbers, but you can control taking your meds. One day, one tablet at a time.
