In Range

Posted on August 31, 2021 by pensitivity101

It has taken a while, but Hubby’s INR has now been in range for two weeks in a row.
This is wonderful news because of the cock up at our previous surgery, which now appears to have set his parameters in the wrong bracket anyway to those of 10 years ago!!!
Oh what joy to be in the care of professionals!
Not only that, but Hubby is now being assigned a new nurse for continuance of care as the one he has been seeing is to qualify as a nursing practitioner and will only be at the practice one day a week.  His next appointment is for two weeks. Hurrah!

And it gets better!
We have had notification of our flu jabs next month, so no messing about with trying to make an appointment only to be told they’ve run out of vaccine like the other lot!

Want a laugh?
Apparently Hubby overheard a conversation between the receptionist and a guy who lives practically opposite our new surgery who wants to move……………… to our old one!
Seems he is under the impression he will be able to get an appointment immediately and that the staff are efficient. We have had no issues since switching, so can only say
Dream on mate, and hope you have at least an hour to spare as you wait on hold.

About pensitivity101

I am a retired number cruncher with a vivid imagination and wacky sense of humour which extends to short stories and poetry. I love to cook and am a bit of a dog whisperer as I get on better with them than people sometimes! In November 2020, we lost our beloved Maggie who adopted us as a 7 week old pup in March 2005. We decided to have a photo put on canvas as we had for her predecessor Barney. We now have three pictures of our fur babies on the wall as we found a snapshot of Kizzy, my GSD when Hubby and I first met so had hers done too. On February 24th 2022 we were blessed to find Maya, a 13 week old GSD pup who has made her own place in our hearts. You can follow our training methods, photos and her growth in my blog posts. From 2014 to 2017 'Home' was a 41 foot narrow boat where we made strong friendships both on and off the water. We were close to nature enjoying swan and duck families for neighbours, and it was a fascinating chapter in our lives. We now reside in a small bungalow on the Lincolnshire coast where we have forged new friendships and interests.

    Goodness, I thought everyone in the UK had their jabs ages ago. Our second one in in two weeks time and I thought S Africa was way behind.

      We’ve had both of our Covid jabs, and they are concentrating on those a lot younger than us. However, we don’t know if the mentioned third ‘booster’ will come into play in which case, we’d like to be prepared.

    Such good news! I’m waiting for the notification of our flu shots too. It is all up in the air on the boosters for coronavirus. I’m hoping that we can get them if they become required….
