Hello to you all

I am due to go up to see the nurse for a blood test Wednesday 27th March next week and I am dreading it but know I have to due 2 the Anastrozloe I take for B/Cancer I would make her aware of my IBS/DD but she won't be able to help as she will say "MY" Job is only to take blood but I will say something about other problems just in case!!!

Good luck for Wednesday yes, she will probably they can't help but ask them to note your concerns on your medical records and if not satisfied see the GP

Well I took your advice on board thank you as well as me having D/Disease-IBS Cataracts AMD I have also been told that I now got High Blood Pressure noises in my head I think it would be easier if I told anyone what was right with me as I had B/Cancer in 2018 chemo/radio I just think that now I am 62 that I am slowly falling apart so not only that I am trying to eat "SAFE FOOD" as well oh what fun we all have on this forum!!! Please take care and look after yourself xxx and I got the Nurse to add it to my records

Sadly they may listen to what you say but it isn't usually a doctor that takes your blood. They can't offer advice but instead tell you to speak to your consultant or GP

she will be a phlebotomist nothing more you will just waste her time to be honest. Talk to GP or go to drop in centre or A&E if really bad
