Update

Back, yet again, from the doctors. I think I should have my own seat in the waiting room.

This time I was able to point out to the nurse the little scar/scratch which is where the fluid is coming from. She put a new dressing on it, one she said would help it heal. Then a big plaster which is due to stay on for two days. She also gave me some to take away.

For those wondering about me seeing a lymphoedema nurse, she also made me an appointment with the diabetic nurse for next week, and that nurse will make a decision about a referral. So, we’ll see.

Today’s nurse also took a blood test, which is to do with my ongoing kidney issues. I will ring up on Monday and see what the results are. I’m a bit nervous because last night I had lower back pain, just where it would hurt if my kidneys were playing tricks.

Now, I’m going to elevate my legs.
