Yehp. Today actually. 5.3.18.

[John_Mills Volunteer in reply to rrahman]

Was your appointment successful?

[rrahman in reply to John_Mills]

To be honest. Its always very brief.

Quick blood test check, any bleeding or dramatic change since last visit and finished.

He was going to contact Dr Jayne from addenbrookes but then he never did because i hadn't presented with any changes.

If i do present with major problems he does look into it but otherwise its minimal intervention.

My issues right now is that my sternum in the nose has deviated a lot. But he's reluctant in referring me ti the ent because he's done it before and case was closed. So he told me to ask the GP for a referral.

So all in all not brilliant not so bad.
