[QUOTE="Annb, post: 2485918, member: 25851"] I have my fingers crossed for you SIL's procedure to go ahead today as well. Surely they won't cancel again. I managed to speak to a GP today. Raigmore hasn't told them what's going on either and the results of the pre-op go directly to Raigmore. However, blood test results did go onto my record so she can get at least an idea of what might be the issue. Unfortunately (but unsurprisingly) my HBa1c is up from 50 to 78. My Levothyroxine tablets are not sufficient, so the dose has to go up from 75mcgm to 100mcgm. I am marginally anaemic and haemoglobin is low. All of these, plus lack of sleep, she thinks are causing my breathlessness. She wants me to take Co-codamol before bed to see if that will help me to sleep (not keen on that, but I'll give it a try), increase intake of red meat (especially liver), fats and red and green veg. Keep taking milk in my tea. Stop taking Simvastatin. And wait for Raigmore to get in touch. [/QUOTE]
