[quillswriting]

I pressed a wrong button and it just posted my unfinished post!

So, also

13th April - Potassium - NORMAL, Bilirubin - NORMAL, FBC - NORMAL (slight white cell raise but I had a bad cold then), U & E - NORMAL, Liver Function - NORMAL, Random Glucose - NORMAL

May 16th - EFGR - NORMAL

14th March - Liver - NORMAL, Thyroid - NORMAL, FBC - NORMAL, B12 - NORMAL, Red Cell Folate - NORMAL.

I had a right go at the nurse on the phone because I was told I had a very slight raise in Calcium but I had not been informed properly.  I was told during a meeting with a locum when she looked at my notes she said "Did you know your calcium was up?" and I said, "No" so I had a go at the nurse, who informed me TODAY - that my Albumin was up on that day too!  I said "Why didn't anyone tell me?" and she said that the doctor was not concerned about the levels because they were small raises, other levels were perfect and the repeat tests were well within normal range suggesting that i was dehydrated or that the tourniquet was on too long, which it was, I admit I had a lot of blood taken that night!

But all other tests were perfect.  Now, I don't have the hospital test results, the GP has not got them until later, he has to request them!  I will find out what else has been done.

I'm meeting with a psychiatrist today and not pleased about it.  I hope to tell him what has REALLY been going on, in the hope he'll believe me!

I did find out that my rheumatoid factor was done in 2005 when they first suspected CFS and that was normal.

And otherwise, I have NOT had a Lupus titer done as far as the nurse on the desk could tell me, but, I am certain that my GP tested me for it, she said that she would that was in 2005.  The nurse struggled to read out all my tests, she was very vague, I had to really push her to get them out of her.
