Health issues
#1
My back problems (pain related) are finally getting better and I no longer have carers round and Rick has been really helpful around the home.  I was thinking my health was finally getting better generally despite being anaemic for the past 10 months.  Over the months I've had tests but nothing has been found.  I saw my GP today as he's concerned over how much weight I've lost - from 78Kg down to 60.5 kg - combined with being anaemic.  He's now put for an urgent request for a ct scan to rule out cancer which hasn't exactly cheered me.

I also had an echo scan done recently as a blood test showed up something to do with my heart.  He's told me that blood s being pumped through my heart but one of my upper valves is becoming stiffer and a referral has been sent to a cardiologist.  The best case scenario is I'll be monitored. the worst is surgery which can be done by a wire being put up  into the valve to ease the problem instead of open heart surgery.
