Well, seems that this #GrumpyOldMan will be hanging around for a little while yet. Well, at least it won't be #BowelCancer doing me in.
I've also had a recent blood test at my doctor's surgery and will go back fro the results of that next week. The only concern is that I know I'm #preDiabetic and so I'll find out if that has got better or worse.
I've always managed to avoid needing to see medical professionals but looks like getting old has put paid to that. Ho hum.
At least we still have an NHS that works in this respect. Thankfully it is a very resilient NHS as just about every government we've had recently has tried to bring it to its knees. Bastards.

So I decided to come off #gluten (close family have tested as strongly intolerant in recent years, but I didn't) as during this cold my digestive system has been rubbish. When I've been eating healthily (big changes about 2.5 years ago after testing as #prediabetic) it's been low carb and either intermittent fasting (typically no breakfast) or one meal a day. We've been mostly #vegetarian for a few years.
So "normal" is fairly low gluten, but stress eating comfort food is opposite. -

#BookingAnAppointment was #SimplicityItself and #VeryQuick (within 24-hours)... #MyGP recommended some #VeryCommon and #VeryCheap #Medication and some #SmokingCessation; but, because he was also #ChronicallyObese, I also #Recommended that he try #WorkingOut maybe #TwoToThree #TimesPerWeek and #NotSitting #BehindADesk #AllHisWorkingLife...
That seemed like a #FairTransaction, right... | #LookNoQuestionMark
There will be a #FollowUp #InSoFar as I have an #ECG #Booked for #NextWeek and "they" also want a #UrineSample to #MakeSure I'm not #PreDiabetic, which I #AlreadyKnow I'm not...
