Keep us posted about how it goes.

Well about the same time as the eye changes I was getting migraines
with aura once a day for about a week ....I have been having
migraines with aura off and on for about 20 years...I used put my
migraines with aura down to Chocolate but I had been off chocolate
for months so I thought it might be too much salt ...so I stopped
adding salt to my food ...and I loved my salt...and within a few days
my migraines stopped and after a week my eyes had returned to their
normal state...so it was too much salt ... sodium poisoning.....have
to say I never linked my migraines with aura to too much salt
before....I did like my salt though....but no more if it causes all
those problems and more....and my dizziness has gone as well....

so as a test purely in the interests of science you understand I
recently had a big ritter sports bar and a few days later had a big
bar of Tony's....no migrains.......


Feck out working on the Mustang track rod ends there this morning and
bingo a migraine with aura....so much for all my theories.....I give up

Off to doctor to see what's not in balance.

Here, a hospital blood test can get results faster
than a clinic-inspired blood test. With the clinic,
the round trip cycle time is three weeks, which is
too long when you're really sick. On the negative
side, the wait at the hospital can be forever.
Four to eight hours at my local (ten minutes walk from
the house). Since seasonal flu is not at the usual
winter levels, there will be fewer seats with bums
on them at the moment at hospital.

On the plus side (I checked a while back), my clinic
is mostly empty. Empty of patients, empty of doctors.
Very little work going on. I got prescriptions there.

no point tried that in the past waste of time ...

Migraines? Elevate to neurologist.

Your GP is only going to give you a referral,
if he can craft a cover letter justifying the
exercise. Every step in the flow chart, includes
justification (when you get a chest XRay, they
have to write on the form *why* you need a chest XRay, it's for the
radiologist to read).

Doesnt happen here and I always read my referrals.

And various people will make squidgy faces, if the
justification is not worded "just right".
They sometimes get into squabbles behind the scenes.
(I'm not supposed to be aware that's happening of
course.)

I found out about the chest XRay, on my very first XRay.
The doctor neglected to fill that box, so they made
me drive back to the clinic and get the box filled.

One of my special skills, is transporting medical forms
to the correct address (even when the wrong address
is written on them) :-)

For my aura, nobody made any suggestion that blood
pressure could do it. It was just a pleasant side-effect,
when the auras stopped, once I was on BP meds.
