Worried
I had appointments with ALL of my medical providers in January: dentist, optometrist, ob-gyn, and GP. Whee. New glasses (which I will pick up tomorrow), thankfully nothing special at the dentist, new or refilled scrips, a mammogram (which was normal, yay), and blood lab work.
It's the last that is making me worry, because I'd expected to get the results in the mail as usual, but instead the office called yesterday and wanted me to call back (they called the home number and got SO - I was having a hugely busy day at work so didn't even have time to get the message till evening). Called just now and was booked an appointment for next Wednesday to discuss the lab results.
So now I'm worried, in a minor way anyhow, because as I say usually I just get a copy of the results in the mail with various things highlighted and a note or two from my doctor to say "all okay" or "this is high, call for a prescription for X". Being called in for an in-person consult does not bode well, seems to me.
Also I am still feeling down a lot of the time, although it's not as bad as October was. There are reasons for the gloom and the stress so it's not purely head-chemical-whatever, but Not Fun. :-( I might go back to talk to our campus counselor again, I think. (And is there any irony in the fact that I signed up for a suicide prevention training class this week?)
Today being grey and dismal and overcast (very warm, in the 60s now and supposed to get to 70, but dismal) is not helping my mood much either.
