Yesterday I just said to O, "I am actually feeling rather well today, but then again, that's how I have been feeling every Monday, only for it to take a turn for the worse on Tuesday and then seriously downhill during the course of the week."
True to my dooms day feeling, at 3am this morning, C woke up with a terrible cold. Yet again. Ok, so one day at home and then off to school for his last day. And then the tummy bug hits us again. What IS this?! I NEVER have tummy bugs, but now? And ALONE.
I feel terribly sorry for myself at the moment.
On a good note, I received my new lovely table runner from John Lewis: Nice, isn't it?
I also received a quite encouraging email from my new GP, who did run a long list of blood tests on me last Friday.Verdict:
I am out of the woods regarding my iron, it is now normal! (I managed to run down my iron stores to 5 after J was born and it came with heart condition and other not so nice side effects.), but this is now fine.
Good news number 2 was that kidneys are just fine (my blood pressure is mysteriously rising since the birth of my 2nd child), but thanks to my new GP I am going to an impressive specialist on the subject (I have done some googling and he has done a lot of good!)
Cortisol level is still up a little bit, and needs further investigating by my Big City endocrinologist who started an investigation last year, but wanted iron to be up before doing anything further.
Admit it, this must have been my most interesting post this far?

I'm so, so glad to hear about the good test results and even happier, and lucky, to realise that we have found a decent GP (they are not easy to come by!!). So we're back on track. "Give us the tools and we will finish the job"
