199. Hot, hot, hot

To the GP today for various issues.  I have a list of 5 topics.



Back to work.

OK to drive?

X-Ray results

Bone scan request

Referral to triple negative expert


I feel well.  I feel normal, other than not being able to get up any earlier than 10am.  Therefore I must be well enough to be back at work. 

If I’m well enough to be back at work, I’m well enough to drive.  Did a couple of short journeys in the car to test myself and was completely capable.

My shoulder x-ray results were pretty much inconclusive.  Hopefully not cancer.  Could be arthritis.  So pretty much a waste of time really.

Leading to the bone scan.  This was agreed by my oncologist to ensure the cancer hasn’t metastasized to the bone.  If it has, I’m not going to bother having the double mastectomy and reconstruction.  No point really if the cancer has spread already.  But the scan hasn’t been arranged yet.  Why not?

One of the girls from the support group found a triple negative expert who works at Guys Hospital in London.  She contacted him and has arranged to be referred to see him by her GP.  I’d like the same. 



Very nice GP, mine.  He agreed to everything pretty much.  And he’s very kind, and listens well, and is very good looking.  I’m turning into one of those middle aged women who lusts after her doctor.  Sad old bag.
