Hospital tomorrow !
I have my annual review tomorrow at the hospital, and I am very nervous. It's not the most exciting day out. Kind of a pain in the butt. The only good thing is I do no longer have a port (small little box in my chest) woo they took it out when I had corrective surgery on a scar on my belly. As I haven't had ivs in nearly 4 years, it was near the end of its life I suppose anyways. And getting it flushed every 6 weeks was annoying. My hospital is about a hour on the train. At least tomorrow they don't have to access my port. I will have bloods done, X-ray , glucose test, talk with the team, see if I have gained or lost weight. Most importantly see what my good old lungs are doing , with a lung function test. Last time I was there I think it was about 78%. Which for me is one of my best. I was in the 60s for awhile. So when I got to high 60s I was excited, then when I reached 70s I wanted even higher. It's a strange feeling, like your in competition with your past self. My lung function is so important, more so as I'm getting older. I want a child more then anything in the world. In order for me to have that I need the best lung function I can have, as I could loose up to 30% of my lungs while pregnant. I do not want a child now, but I need to keep my body and lungs the most healthiest It can be. Well we shall see what the hospital says tomorrow. Xx
