hi guys,
just to let you know that we had our meds today, x-rays were all fine, hubby passed with flying colours, so did our daughter Chanelle, the doctor said that my body mass index was 34.9 when it should be 30 and that i need to lose weight!!!! then he took two attempts to get any blood from my veins, in the end i had to go to Microbiology at the local hospital the consultant there couldn't find a vein either so i ended up being stabbed in the pathology lab where finally they managed to get some, all this and i hate needles :scared:
I had the giggles during the eye test, couldn't stop and was told to compose myself whilst the doctor tested my daughters!
All in all took 4 hours but as we left we were told that pending the HIV tests we have passed!
so there you have it
best wishes to everyone else
hugs
rach, mark and chanelle x

congrats, that is another milestone passed and the final straight is well and truly in sight.

We had our meds done there last week.

I think you must be mistaken about his age or you must of had his son, ours was at least 135.

I was looking around for the hidden cameras waiting for someone to jump out. He took ten minutes opening our x-ray envelope. Did he use the same 2 poly cups for the urine test which he barely swills out before handing to the next users.

Not the nicest of blokes either,miserable git.


Cheers

LOL!

We tried to help the old man up when he wanted to get something so it would speed things up but it just made him cross!

He said he was going to measure and weigh the girls but he didn't - so then I asked him if he was going to do it and he said he wasn't there was no need.

Course I didn't want a problem with the meds so I complained and got Ed to take them back with new envelopes off a different forms - made him open the meds and write down the measurements I had noted! He was well pissed and told Ed 'tell your wife I have been doing this for 30 years!'

30 years too bloody long I'd say - real money grabber and he kept getting wierd phonecalls with people wanting prescriptions on his mobile very shady. probably one of his mates needing some viagra!!!

We used Dr mallam, in chichester west sussex...............he was a bit old, but very polite........despite keeping us waiting for over an hour he plodded on at a very leisurely pace........eldest son got a bit larey...........wished I could have smacked him in the gob......doctor asked if he had any problems hearing...........`What did you say, cant quite hear you was his reply`....I could have killed him....said how important these meds were...........he said the doctor should have had a sense of humour..........anyone want a 16 year old., who really is a pain in the ar.e!!!!!!!!But thinks he is gods gift to woman.
