Venesection at FVR Day Medicine Unit ~ Venesection Suite.
Venesection no.6, I intended to post a photo of the treatment site. Sorry no photo ~ as there is nothing to see. No bruise, almost invisible pin prick!
Amazing when I think about the needle Cathy wields! This care/treatment has been the highlight of 2020 for me (anyone knowing this exists must feel the same?) No surgery, no medication ~ simple blood drawing. I have worded that wrongly...looks simple when an expert is doing the blood drawing!
This time 2019 I was so despondent, no energy, sad, sore and losing weight. Thankful my GP did blood tests and followed through to diagnose my genetic condition. Even more thankful to have consultant appt and treatment. I am full of hope, positivity and energy levels are improving.
Cathy and her team are invaluable; saving patients from complicated illness and procedures: if only everyone was tested when we presented with non-specific, pain, fatigue and vague "unwell" symptoms the NHS and patients would be in a much better place!
To All at the Medical Day Unit and Cathy and Venesection Team....You made my 2020 "Nae Sae Bad" and I know you will make my 2021 the year I get young again! Have a Happy New Year, May you have Health, Happiness and Prosper in all your endevours!
"Marvellous people and reasons to celebrate"
