I have just looked in my diary to see that I have an appointment with my GP next monday, it is one I made some weeks ago.
Then I got to thinking that EVERY time I have been to see my GP since my diagnosis of uncurable prostate cancer four and a half years ago every appointment has been made by ME not once has my GP asked to see me, all the appointments have been when I thought they ought to see me. IS THIS COMMON?
I know I see my consultant every 3 months but surely I could expect my GP to take some interest in my health or lack of it, he had decades of being paid for me being a patient even though I never had occaission to go to the surgery.
Now that I am trying Active Surveillance I am costing the NHS nothing except for some Double base for the dry skin.
And now today I discover that there is a difference between being terminaly ill and uncurable! According to the benefits office your terminaly ill when you only expect to live for less than six months otherwise your ONLY uncurable!!
Crystal Ball time, might go and get my palm read.
sorry everybody lol and hugs
