Have received all my test results today

[Guest guest]

HI

Among my blood tests CRP and ESR were raised, and my GP has decided to refer me

for an urgent appointment to see a RHEUMATOLOGIST.

He mentioned that there are many different types of Arthritas, and also

mentioned Fibromyalgia, and ME. At the moment he is more concerned about my

mobility, and getting that dealt with.

It appears that the GYNAE problems are going to have to wait. I also tried to

mention about the fact that I have a problem with the waterworks, but that too

he dismissed.

My thyroid could do with more thyroxine being 5.5. and bone profile was OK.

There is a problem in obtaining my usual thyroxine even from BOOTS, and they

only have ELTROXIN. Goldshield played up like this before, and it appears that I

am going to have to go without until they can locate some without ANHYDROUS

SODIUM in it.

CRP and ESR have been raised before, and indicates inflammation, but does not

help them to know where the inflammation is or what it is. He did say that the

CRP was 48 and it reached this before, but I did not have all this pain I have

now, only in the back and bladder, but I do not have that pain in the bladder

now, but it has been replaced with pain in all the inner joint areas.
