I change patches twice a week and wear three at a time. I put all three on the left side on Tuesdays and the right side on Fridays. I also use an IV Hand Dressing to cover them so clothing doesn't rub them off. The brand is IV 3000 and they work great. I like them better than Tagederm. Waterproof yet porous so skin can breathe. No problems with patch residue when they come off. It seems the residue is just dust/lint that collects on the glue at the edge of the patch. With the dressing over them, the edges are not exposed.

Hey all - a patches question for you.
My endo just upped my dose to 0.15/week... which means a 0.1 patch and a 0.05 patch.
This will be the first time I've worn multiple patches. Is there any particular strategy to maximize efficacy? Or is it just the same as with one — meaning just put them in the same places I normally put my one, and it's fine if I put two in the same area, or one on each side of my body, etc - that doesn't matter?
Just curious how those who have done this have played this in the past.
Thanks!

This evening I had some chicken fried rice. Not that a chicken fried the rice, rather the fried rice had chicken in it. Plus eggs, which is actually more chicken.

I wonder if it is actually cheaper to buy produce at the market than home grown.
However, I know my food is organic, fresh, and it is fun to garden.

We still take joy in each other's company.
I am glad your relationship is steadfast.

Thanks for answering, Emma. It sounds like you've set a comforting course.
