Hoozah for the NHS!

Yay! Badgering my GP and presenting bullet points of evidence has delivered a diagnosis. Severe sinus infection, allergies to dust mites, grass pollen and dogs (thankfully not cats!) and minor Bronchiectasis which will hopefully be eased with doxycycline and steroid nasal spray.

Pixie and I are very pleased!

She’s a darling cat but with proper tortoiseshell attitude! She was named Pixie by the cat rescue centre because the people who brought her in put her in a plastic box and sealed the lid. The poor animal had nearly asphyxiated so “Pixie” was derived from asphyxia. I guess we both have a history of breathlessness!
