I am feeling quite unwell and have a bright red face ! Think i may be flaring ! My question is ...... i have a blood test slip to be done before i see my local rheumy in march, ...BUT i am also due to go to st thomas at the end of the month, so i was thinking , is it best to have my bloods done now while i feel ill and may get the results back before i go to London ? or should i do as i'm told and have them done end of feb ?

Hi, I think that I would get them done now as I would imagine it would be usefull to have some current results when you go to St Thomas's. You can always get them redone at end of Feb as well. xx

Personally, I'd get them done now, at least then if they request another set of bloods later (when u're hopefully feeling more on an even keel) they will have something 2 compare it with.
