Had a meds review yesterday with the very helpful Pharmacist attached to our GP surgery. I have spoken to him before when he switched me from lansaprozole to famotidine. He even asked me how I was getting on with that yesterday.Went through all my issues which may be linked to my meds: tiredness, fatigue, flatulence, muscle aches and pains, weakness, etc. He asked loads of questions. Will now switch from Atorvastatin to Rosuvastatin but he also sent me a link to book a blood test at local hospital to check my thyroid, iron, b12 and vitD. He could see results of my most recent blood test for cholesterol, hb1ac, etc whilst he was talking to me.
Will be interesting to see if this improves things.
Oh, and on a side note. On one of my recent stays in hospital I was given an echocardiogram, it was unusually quiet and the guy needed someone to practice on 😃. As well as heart he looked at my spleen, gall bladder, kidneys, lungs and liver. As a result they, he was being supervised, spotted some "simple" cysts on my kidneys and said they would refer me for a non-urgent outpatient scan. Well, had a phone call the other day and booked in for that tomorrow. Was expecting to wait months for that.
