Tuesday
The rain and thunder woke me from a deep sleep just after four o'clock and there has been heavy rain continuously since. The thunder has stopped thankfully.
I had to get to the Health Centre for an 8:30am appointment so searched the depths of the understairs cupboard for an umbrella ... the broken one in the photo was the only one I could find so, time running out, it had to do. I got there in plenty of time and got soaked through getting from the car to the entrance under an umbrella which wouldn't stay up! Then the news that the specialist had been called back to the hospital in Bath so all they did today was an echocardiogram. At least the process has been started and my GP will get the result in about ten days so I need to make an appointment to see him.
The worst part was getting dressed in sopping wet clothes so I was feeling really chilled by the time I got home. I've had a soak in the bath, and am now wrapped in a thick fluffy dressing gown and nursing a hot drink.
I won't be going out again today! I'm feeling quite sleepy after my early start so I'm going back to bed to catch up with some sleep, and then the rest of the day will be a mixture of reading, TV, and music.
How frustrating but at least the process has started and, hopefully, you will get some answers soon.

What pretty colour your umbrella is ... possible entry for SPSH? I get that doctors have emergencies but still how frustrating for you & as you say at least the process has been started & who knows maybe that one test will tell your doctor what the next step should be. Fingers crossed it's all good & the doctor says, oh your tiredness, you just need more iron in your diet ... like spinach or kale ...
ReplyDeleteOh, too bad the umbrella was broken and wouldn't stay up! Then, you make all that effort to get to the clinic in the rain and everything and the doctor isn't there! That must have been very frustrating. Anyway, as you say, they started the process. I'm hoping that all will be well and you just need some extra iron or vitamin D!
