Doctor’s appointment & Funny pic

23 Replies

Hello BLF friends,

I must do a 24-hour urine test which will confirm or not the abnormal blood cells 🤞🤞🤞

I will do that when I come back from Mum’s as I am leaving on Friday for her 90th birthday and staying for a week. 🎂🍾🎂🍾

Should it confirm a myeloma he will refer me to a haematologist.

I must also see an endocrinologist to talk about my steroids intake, dosage and management upon my return.

Aria made me laugh this evening, I needed that..

Have a nice evening!!

Good luck with all that Fran, and Mums B/Day.

Can I ask what dosage of Steroids you are taking daily, as I see my consultant next week to discuss the same thing for my COPD?

in reply to rtaxron

Thanks Ron. I am on steroids for adrenal insufficiency which I have developed because of too many steroids in inhalers and for chest infections so I don’t know if it will be of any help to you.

I have an action plan my minimum is 7.5mg daily Prednisone which I am supposed to raise according to physical stress, like dentist, tests, sickness, ops, travel. I can raise up to 4times the amount according to the severity of the stress..in hospital we get hydrocortisone injections.

Today I have reached 15mg because I could hardly get up with the day I had yesterday plus I had to take Dad to the ophthalmologist at 11 am, there was a misunderstanding he wasn’t consulting today and the home has taken another appointment at 2 pm at the dentist for him! So he is exhausted and so am I! 😃

That’s how it goes..

Hope you find a good treatment.

Wow. Aria is texting , drinking, and about to drive after remoting the tv a bit. Very talented creature there.

in reply to mellyme

😃😃She keeps busy while I am making another cup of herbal tea wondering if I will get some sleep. I will have to get on youtube again, listened to that boring sleep music and relax!

Goodnight mellyme x
