Unwell and bloods due tomorrow

[Polly2501]

Hi just have a quick question, I've been unwell this afternoon with vomiting and a low grade fever as well as dizziness. I'm due my next set of bloods tomorrow at the doctors and wondered if this will have an affect on them or whether I should postpone? Thanks in advance.

I think I'd postpone till you feel better. You obviously feel unwell so you might be better staying in bed.

Agreed. Illness likely will affect results.

I was going to ask a similar question. Not due blood tests but have been ill a week now with fever, cough and vomiting and diarrhoea. hence not been able to eat hardly anything and I wondered if thyroid meds needed to be adjusted or does it not matter? I've lost 5lb in a week.

So sorry you've been poorly! I'm afraid I don't know the answer to your question, could you post it as a separate post and then others should respond. Hope you get to the bottom of it soon.

Well I'm OK again now so hopefully it won't happen again for a long time now
