Hi, ummm...I had my tonsils removed on Tuesday June 27th and I couldn't take the pills because I was in too much pain to swollow anything. On Thursday June 29thI took 3 pills...I wasn't quite sure how it worked. I think the info sheet said double up if you miss a pill. So I took Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday's pill at 8:40pm one after the other...my usually time is 9:00pm. I didn't take my pill on friday mainly because I found it was still too painful to swollow and also because I started bleeding like I had my period so I freaked and I stopped the pills...now that I feel I'm ABLE to swollow properlly, I was wondering when is a good time to start because the pharmasist said start 7 days after my period but I am more familier with a sunday start so I wanted advice from you guys...Thanks :) please answer ASAP

ok since its kinda late now (its 1 in the morning in toronto July 4th) I'll take them tomorrow at 9:00 thx for all the help ^_^

Heres some other things I've been thinking about:

Is it safe to shorten my sugar pills?
Does it have side effects?
Does stopping the pill and going back on it increase chances of pregnancy?

Thanks
