Oops, somewhat late again this week. Still suffering with a cold/cough (not that that’s related to the tardiness). Switched themes on the blog too, because I started writing a more technical post and code examples didn’t really work with the narrow column.
I went to the doctor’s on Friday for a follow-up on high cholesterol numbers from my recent blood test. Looks like I’ll probably be prescribed statins, but I’ve got to have a fasting blood test first (Friday week) to check the numbers. I keep thinking of the old Not The Nine O’Clock News sketch.
I thought I’d be cutting it a bit fine to get back from the 8.20 doctor’s appointment in time to get Casper and Nobby to the vet for 9.30, but as it turns out I was back home by 8.35, so no rushing required. Routine vaccinations for Casper, but confirmation that Nobby (who’s nearly 18) can’t see, which turns out to be due to detached retinas from high blood pressure (there seems to be a theme developing). He’s now got some tablets to bring the blood pressure down, but that probably won’t fix his eyesight.
Not a lot else to report as far as I can remember!
