Despite my fears and worries this morning went better than expected.
My wife Gill 'phoned the surgery first thing to be told that the appointment would go ahead despite my not having received the usual text confirming and reminding me.
There were just four cars in the surgery's car park - 3 staff and one doctor and I had to knock on a window outside the reception area for permission to go through the door to "sign in"
After sanitising my hands I sat in an empty waiting room until called in.
The nurse was wearing a mask for my safety (she said) and no checks were made on me except for me to volunteer that I'd been in self isolation for three weeks.
As I have cyanocobamalin injections every three weeks I now have now been given enough needles for the next fifteen weeks which hopefully will be enough for when things get back to "normal" but was told more could be made available if necessary.
I'm also fortunate to have enough B12 vials to last until mid September.
This is the first time after forty-eight years with P.A. that I have been "allowed" to self inject, all previous requests to do so having been denied, but perhaps this terrible situation with the Covid-19 has done us a bit of a favour.
I wish all my friends and colleagues on here well for the future in the hope that they all get the treatment they need as I have done today.
