Diet drinks - the artificial sweeteners taste vile.
Having to forswear foods I have loved all my life.
Trying to find low carb meals when eating out.
I missed my annual screen late last year due to an extended holiday.
I rang up for a new appointment to be told that since 1st April this year the testing has been outsourced to a private company and this company has not yet come back with a testing schedule.
Given that it is now late May this does not bode well for them hitting any major targets this year.
Anyone else seen this?
I'm not that worried yet, as my last two tests have been fine and my optician also gives me a very thorough going over, but it is a general concern if service levels are going to drop through outsourcing to private firms.
Given that contract start was 1st April it is not encouraging that there is still no testing schedule two months later.
Cheers
