An update

1) I saw my endocrinologist last week. She said that my thyroglobulin levels have come down (or my "globs" as an endocrine nurse called them) I still have to an MRI, I guess they want to check that everything is in order. I don't have to see her for another four months, and I probably won't have to have another blood test for another two weeks! 

2)I need to speak to a doctor this week because there's a mistake on my prescription slip. I don't even know why. It was correct, but now, all of a sudden, it is not. There's definitely been some communication between the two hospitals, but that line of communication has not extended to my GP. (Apparently they are behind on their typing at the hospital and that is why. Hopefully they've caught up by now)

3)I didn't know if physiotherapy was having any real effect, then I foolishly went a day without doing my exercises (tsk, tsk) and I really felt the difference! So stiff! 

4)I've been trying to learn how to be more patient with myself. This is just over the course of the past few months. I was given no timeline for recovery and yet I've been getting so frustrated with myself, simply for not being 100% yet! 

5)Calcium levels are crawling up. They do seem to take dip when my immunity levels aren't so good, so I'm trying to keep them up. Another reason to eat better, really!

6)The CT and MRI scans have been booked. They will be at the end of this month, far too early in the morning! (Well, the CT scan is first, and is at 8.45. The MRI is at 9.20, so maybe I'll just have a nap)

I think that rounds it all up nicely!
