I've done as you suggest, the questionnaire was lengthy, and the nearest blood sample centre was miles away.

Good for you Phil - think of the inconvenience as an investment in the the future...
Sorry, I couldn't resist!

Not quite, I've declined the blood test until they have a nearer clinic. That option is in the survey.

Hmmmm I'm oribabky quite early in the 1000s but I'm still thoughtful about data protection. This us a orivate/ NHS relationship and as I say, thoughtful...
Philosophers have only interpreted the world - the point, however, is to change it. No it isn't ... maybe we should leave it alone for a while.

I was not happy with my new blood pressure medication, and had previous contact with the surgery, even having an ECG. No problems were found.

Still not happy, I saw another Doctor this morning, and he says the new medication was having the same effect as my usual pill, and was in fact doubling up on the desired effect. :shock:

So, I'm stopping the new pill and going back in a weeks time to be re-assessed.

Blood pressure medication is such an innocuous medication to say it keeps me alive .

I've taken nine different ones and had no problems .

Currently take ramipril, amadolphine and doxysosin.
