Brief doctor visits

On Tuesday I saw a gp about the results of a blood test. I’m honestly not sure why I had to have an appointment. I had a cytomegalovirus test that came back equivocal in December and then had a repeat test a couple of weeks ago. That one also came back the same and that’s why I was called in. It could just be a false result or perhaps a reactivation of a virus I’ve had in the past. But it’s not really of any concern since I have no symptoms and it’s not causing any problems.

This morning I saw the specialist regarding my CT scan and blood tests and that was a short and easy visit. My iron levels are so good I am almost on the upper end of normal. She doesn’t think there’s any need for further investigations so I won’t be having the capsule endoscopy after all. I do have a follow-up blood test and doctor visit to do then, just to monitor things. I suspect if everything is still good I won’t need to see her again.
