Busy Week

I've had a bit of a busy week this week. Along with the usual rubbish I've been ringing the Dr's, the hospital and the chemist to make sure I have all the correct letters done so I can take my medication on holiday next week. Only 5 days to go!

What a performance though, and what a waste of Nhs resources. I've had several letters written for me that the airport staff probably won't read, but it's better to be safe than sorry.

Had 3 needles again this morning. The nurses have had a bit of trouble getting my blood over the last few months. I think maybe after 17 years of having blood tests every month my veins might have given up, and to be honest, I don't blame them!

Have been really sore today and had to come to bed this afternoon. I ended up staying here for about 5 hours but at least I was able to get up and go to choir tonight.

According to my Dr and my rheumatology nurse all signs point towards having a frozen shoulder. I just hope they can sort it before my hip replacement because using the crutches full time again will be impossible.

Tomorrow I have to have an ultra sound scan on my hands. I hope they let me have a good look at the pictures like you can when you have a baby! I have a joint replacement in one of my fingers and I'd quite like to check it out!
