Update on health

Saw a new doctor yesterday. He was good, really liked his attitude, he appeared to listen to what I was saying, and he asked plenty of questions. Put me through a few tests and then sent me for blood tests that I had done this morning. They took five vials of my blood! In total my blood is being checked for around fifteen different things that may be contributing factors, signs or hints of other problems, or may be things that can be crossed off the list.

I'm feeling quite positive about this. Even if it doesn't find anything, I'll feel that we've had a decent try right from the start. And that's what I care about, almost as much as getting well.

Good to hear. A fresh start with a new doc and a new round of tests might be exactly what you need.

Amazed you have any blood left!

Fingers crossed!

Toes crossed!

Testicles ~ OW!

If you can cross those, I'd pay to see that ;p

Am I going to regret it if I give a price?

Excellent - a doctor you can work with is worth their weight.

Love the beard, btw :)

Time to start calling in all that good karma you're owed ;)

Hope you get some positives out of this.

Very glad to hear that you've found a competent and personable doctor! I was hoping for that with the move. Hope this one can find the clues that enable them to identify and cure what's been ailing you. Crossing all appendages...

I'd been wondering if there was any progress in figuring out the mystery illness - let's hope something known and fixable comes up !
