Hi as promised said I would report on my visit from the community matron today Well she seems to get things moving I did a blog 6months ago about my first visit in 12 yrs to see a consultant and how horrible he was never had a six minute walk test .well things are moving with this matron .

She is my first contact when I think things have worsened. Or need advise. and e

Will make regular visits coming back in 2 weeks

I am so pleased to have this, when you are on your own and in your seventies (others on this site are older I know ) It means such a lot too me to have this and my youngest daughter who does most for me has had some of the pressure lifted

What with district nurse coming twice a week and now a community matron can't say I don't have company Take care love all of you xx
