Just had my annual check.
Lots of tests done includign hba1c as consultant wanted lots doing for my appointment on 21st. Also had vitamin D and PTH done as deficiency of some sort there apparently.
You may remember I wasn't sure whether to go to see the GP with my feet as i have lost several toe nails. The nurse took one look at my feet today and has referred me to a podiatrist -yeah! She also asked me to take some nail clippings for them to be tested. I am not sure how long I will have to wait to see her.
I also had BP done whic h was perfect.
I had my flu jab too.
She also asked me if I was still using my test strips. I said yes and she asked me how often - 4 x a day was my reply and prescription left untouched - yeah again!
I had to do a urine sampe to check my kidneys too.
Also about 6 months ago I was taken off the depo contraceptive injection and haven;t had a monthly yet (sorry men) but have had extremely painful breasts - she has referred me to the breast clinic for this and i have the appointment for 10th November already. She has also said she would like me to see the GP before then as she was quite concerned.
All in all - a few concerns but things are getting sorted.🙂
