We are changing something and rechecking in twelve weeks. Not a catastrophe. A thing to watch.

One marker moved the wrong way and he panicked for a fortnight.

My lipids are worse while everything else is better. I took it very badly for about a week and I am writing that down honestly.

The hard part is that I had let myself believe the direction was only ever going to be one way.

Turns out it was explainable in about four minutes by someone who knew what they were looking at. I had spent a fortnight frightened of a number I had misread.

Panel in eight weeks.

Thank you for saying the hard part out loud. It makes it easier for the rest of us to.

The bit about the two hours before is exactly it. I have never seen anyone put it that way.

Writing this down for my own review, if you do not mind. The question you asked is the one I have been failing to ask for a year.

Would you be willing to say more about how you raised it? I have an appointment on the 14th and I keep losing my nerve.
