Friday

I like the doctor's practice I go to here. The people have been great which is just as well as I'm there or in touch with them so often. I've been to and've known about some that have been awful in my time but these people are just great. Well, you have to say it if they are, don't you. Obviously most of the heavy stuff has to be dealt with by the hospital but they're helpful and nice down at that surgery.



I didn't have a doc when I arrived here .. think I told the story here before. Had picked one off the net and told my doc so that he could get in touch. Had just chosen the nearest one. Turned out that there wasn't a doctor there at all!!!!!! I googled the docs name and couldn't find him anywhere in the UK either. Anyway, it' s all fine now with this new one. I've been told since that they're very nice there and they are.



Had a bit of a problem walking there and wondered if I should go to Tesco or not on my way back. Didn't really like the thought of carrying the tins of tomatoes and veggie sausages and beans back or anything heavyish if I bought them. When I set off back here from Tesco (lol!!) I thought something along the line of "Sometimes I wonder" .. but it turned out to be much easier walking back than there and much easier than it had been for some time. Didn't really feel anything much happening so it must've been just a tiny movement yet it made so much difference. I'd wondered on my way to the docs this afternoon if it might turn out to be a bit like the other Wednesday .. it wasn't as bad but I could see that it might go that way because of the muscles that had moved and the way they were affecting my breathing but it turned out that it was going to go the other way. I did wonder to myself if it was going to get worse if this might be the last time it got that tricky because things had moved so much more now .. but I don't know and obviously it can be really difficult to tell.
