Bugs

I have found a new doctor! Actually, I have an appointment to meet and greet a new doctor tomorrow. I went to the walk-in clinic today to discuss my aches and pains and they have a part time doctor that is accepting new patients. I am hoping it will be a positive meeting tomorrow.

As it turns out, I have in all likelihood picked up some type of stomach bug. It could've been while on holiday in the Caribbean, or it could've been here at home. The doctor isn't sure what it is but there are pending tests and a precautionary ultrasound that are coming up to determine whether the bug is serious and requires antibiotics, or if my body will sort itself out. I couldn't help but ask if the sharp pains I've been having are any cause for concern over miscarriage. Apparently, as a single symptom, they're not, but its something I've been instructed to keep an eye on in the future. Joyous.

Not that it's dampened my determination to find a suitable venue for a baby shower. I really would like to have afternoon tea at a hotel in Toronto, but I'll have to see if I can manage to make it affordable for the attendees. I just don't know what I'd do otherwise - I've already determined and planned the invitations! Ongoing details to follow.

    1. hey! sorry, yes update on the new doctor. The deets are in the new blog, but basically, she's forthright, no-nonsense but pleasant at the same time. Perfect! I'm really really pleased. And more than a little relieved. I can't tell you how excited I am to give my written notice to my current troll. Yes, I am required by contract to fire her by written notice. Oi.
