Dun dun dunnn...

Well the results for the blood test that I had on Tuesday are in. I don't know what they are yet, the Doctor has asked me to come in tomorrow morning to talk about them.

Hmmm, that doesn't sound totally ominous at all.

Actually it isn't all that bad. Well that is what I am telling myself anyway. The call I got was from the receptionist at the practice and I asked her if the Doctor wanting to see me meant it was bad news or just news news. Her response was that if it is bad the Doctor usually calls themselves. So that is an up.

I am guessing the tests turned up something, if I go to the Doctor's just to be told that everything is okay I am going to be a little annoyed. But I am working on the assumption that it isn't a terrible something. Well I am trying to work on that assumption. It is very hard to stop the bit of your brain that is intent on coming up with the worst possible scenarios. I keep asking myself that if the tests were positive for Ross River whether the doctor would call himself or just wait until the morning. Call I would have thought.

Really though, the receptionist I spoke to said that the request from the Doctor wasn't urgent, so I am guess that precludes it from being anything too horrible. I will be interested to hear what the results say though.

Beyond the tests I am gradually on the improve. The improvement is coming a lot slower than I would expect though, which is one of the reasons I am keen to hear what the Doctor has to say tomorrow. Usually with a cold, if I had had four days of total rest and no training I would be feeling good, or at least starting to get there. But today I am still feeling pretty low. Definitely improved, but still tired and run down with a sore throat. Certainly getting there, but not in the way I would normally expect for a cold.

Wait and see what tomorrow brings.
