The internet outage on Sunday seems to hve reset my computer and I am now conducting searches with Bing. This is rather like trying to sew in boxing gloves, as whatever you want to do is marred by the unsuitable and clumsy equipment. I’m not happy, but despite several attempts I have been unable to restore Google as my default browser. I follow the instructions to a certain point then . . .
I seem to be a few buttons short of a full set. Yes, you can take this as a comment on my computer and may lack of computer skills if you like. I suspect another chapter in the history of my feud with Microsoft.
Yesterday was notable in that it was a day when I exposed my genitalia to a man to whom I had not been formally introduced. He was a doctor and it was by appointment so I suppose it was fair enough, though it never seems quite right as an activity unless accompanied by beer and rugby songs.
Today I had a blood test. Two holes, three bottles. The first hole produced a few drops in the tube, but when the nurse took the needle out it bled all over her hand and my arm, so there was plenty there, it was just refusing to cooperate. I think even my veins hate me. They have already rung me with the woeful results. The ineptitude of the Coagulation team means that once again I am reduced to weekly blood tests because they can’t get it right.
I am doing everything they ask in an attempt to escape from their grip, but it’s not working. It’s very difficult to have confidence in a department that insists on giving me the same dose and being surprised when it doesn’t alter the required result. I’m currently blow the range, as I was last week, and they are giving me the same dose as last week. If it didn’t produce a change last week, why will it produce one this week. I’m giving it a couple of weeks and then, when I retire and have the time to spare, will start taking action.
I’m currently holding back on my complaint about Urology, because they are being efficient at the moment, and because they have the power to conduct a prostate exam if I wind them up too much. The worst the Coagulation team cam do ts stick a needle in me, and they are doing that anyway.
