Grand Union Canal – Friday 11 October 2013
Thursday I had an appointment with the Practice Nurse for my annual
Diabetes check – oh dear! My weight has
crept up and I have lost some sensation in my large toes (apparently the first
bit to be lost). However my blood pressure
is normal. I have to provide a urine
sample and go for blood tests. I also
got a flu jab. When back in the marina
Doug and James from ‘nb Chance’ visited, they are going to be mooring here for
the winter.
Today was a trip to Uxbridge for retinopathy, first prove who you are
(Date of Birth and address) then a quick eye check, then eyes dilated with ‘Tropicamide’
and wait for twenty minutes, then each eye has two photos taken (hope they were
smiling) to show the retina (at the back of the eye where light is received). Results should come back in a couple of
weeks.
Autumn weather has definitely arrived – rain and wind over both days.
