So I've been to the doctors this morning, and i sat waiting, and these 2 old boys are talking. Now 1 cant hear properly and the other has a speech problem, they are talking about football from what i can understand, and after 5 minutes the whole surgery had cottoned on to the fact that Micheal Carrick had signed a new deal, apart from the deaf dude who just kept saying 'yer what'.
Anyway my name is called and off i go, i sit and to be honest im quietly shitting myself.
The doctor started off saying the blood specialist from huddersfield hospital, had rung him on wednesday night asking about me and how long i had had these lumps in my throat. He then showed me a graph and explained that the average white blood cell count (the ones that fight viruses) is apparently between 9.00-11.00 per something or other, and mine was 35.40 and this is highly iregular. So my bloods have now been sent to Leeds for deeper investigation, and the waiting begins.
I have also been fast tracked to go see some blood dude, and should have an appointment in the next 14 days. While talking he said a few things that scared the shit out of me, like it could be Weil's disease (Rats carry this), or he had seen a 4 year old last year with a lump in her neck like mine and she had Tuberculosis !
Its my lymph glands that are the size of golf balls but he still cant say why the high white blood cell until ive seen this blood dude.
I have a funny feeling i know what it is but i hope im wrong, cos ive seen what happens to people if it goes down that road.
So the waiting begins, and im not a good person for waiting. I will let you know if i here anything, till then have a good weekend :)
