A few days ago, I went to see the doc for me annual checkup, where he discovered me blood pressure was 'up' which means that I have to go back for a retest at the end of the month.
I visited the hospital, which I detest with a passion, to see Dracula's Daughter, who took an armfull of blood. I rang a few days later to be told that everything was OK, the results were marked 'no further action' required, which means that me medicines stay as they are.
Yesterday, I received a letter from Queen's Medical Centre at Nottingham, signed by Professor somebody or other. I think my blood pressure rose a little as I thought, "bloody hell, what do they want with me? Is there something they haven't told me". I've never had any dealings with these people, and I know they deal with the 'big stuff".
It seems that I fall into the screening group for colon cancer!!!!!
They are sending me a test kit over the next few days, with instructions what to do with it.
My blood pressure went up a little more on reading the letter. What the hell does this mean?
Is it genuinely a 'general screening programme' or is it cover for a more specific check up, because they think they ought to take a closer look at me? Is there something that they have found in me that warrants closer inspection?
The only problem I've had with me 'rear end' is that I'm prone to peri-anal abscesses, so I'm wondering if all this is connected?
I guess I'll have to cooperate and wait for the results, but I ain't very happy at the moment!
