Went to the docs today.
She said the threaded veins (spots) on my chest and back and arms won't go away. Not ever not never. So I'm stuck with them. No more cleavage showage.
She gave me a prescription for my morning nausea. Not a cure - she says my body has gone through a long period of stress and this is simply something to help it cope. Take every morning and there should be no more vomiting.
She was surprised and confused that I hadn't had a liver scan. You know, Tril has been on at me since last year to ask for more help - turns out she's right (the GP is one of the senior partners, it's Hobson's Choice who you get to see). So I will get a letter for a hospital appointment for that. She also wants me to have another blood test asap to make sure all is well. Turns out my liver damage is actually very slight. But she's concerned about some of the other symptoms. Being teetotal is never a bad move, liver-wise, but there may be more going on. Nice.
Oh and when I got down to Reception and asked for a blood test the earliest they could give me was in a fortnight. Not next Friday, the Friday after. So let's hope it's nothing serious, eh?
ETA thanks for the encouraging words peeps.
I do take them on board.
