Group 7-day waking average?

late posting today just returned from my 3 month check at my Opticians after being diagnosed with DMO in January, as some of you may know I have not had any treatment due to my hospital phobia, I have been using the Noctura 400 sleep mask for the last 3 months and my Optician is amazed with my latest OCT scan and eye test, the swelling in my right eye was so bad I had a black shadow and couldn't see properly, the swelling has almost gone, and my other eye is also stable, he showed me the 2 scans and I couldn't believe the difference, he has been able to give me a new prescription which he wasn't happy about In January and has agreed to keep an eye on me in 6 months as long as things stay the same so I am a very happy bunny.

First set of blood test results back and hba1c was 35 with a fasting BG of 5.7 so they’re nicely consistent with recent numbers.

Most other things are fine apart from nucleated red blood cells and white blood cell counts. They’re both way outside reference ranges so the very least is that they have to be tested again. Of course Dr Google goes immediately to bone cancers being the happy soul he is.

ECG is Monday so I’ll book an appointment with the GP to discuss those results alongside the blood test ones I’m assuming maybe at the end of next week.

I don’t know how long it takes ECG results to come through. Anyone have a clue?

Then we can discuss next steps and further referrals.
