Had a phone call from the GP yesterday.
Full set of blood tests and referral for an ECG.
He said it could be nothing but it could be something. Unlikely to be neurological and more likely to be some rare interaction with meds (although unlikely at they’ve not changed for years).
Said blood tests won’t rule anything in but they will rule some things out.
Advised wearing a smart watch capable of measuring HR during sleep so that they can access that data if needed.
Did mention that zopiclone could cause lots of consciousness of taken in excess to which I said “You have my medication requests on file so you can see I don’t take it anywhere near anything that could be classed as excessively. Last time I had a script filed for 28 tablets was November!”
Anyway I’ll call or pop in to the surgery to book blood tests and I’ll get a text message to book the ECG elsewhere.
They’re going to include HbA1C, full kidney and liver tests as well as full set of vitamin and mineral ones plus some other markers.
HbA1C will have undoubtedly ticked up since last time so I’m be told off when that comes through.
