The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

My doctor should be a Pisces, or a Scorpio – or, vice-versa. Let me explain. Like either of those particular star-signs, she can ‘play’, for the benefit of another.



Already having an awareness of this trait of hers, I should not have been quite as impressed as I’d been, yet that’s what had transpired.



It had begun with a visit to her; a double appointment.



We’d talked of many things and, it’d been given a new tablet to try, to ease the gas production: during the consultation she’d talked of the report, following from the scan I’d had: and, ‘did I mind if she became my named doctor?’



Well, after all the help I’ve had from her over time, that had been a no-brainer.



Then, on the Monday, I’d got a call from my doctor.



Like… no-one gets a call from their doctor – but, I had.



“I’d like you to make an appointment for Tuesday or Wednesday,” she had said.



Now, that was short notice indeed…



I’d noticed that she hadn’t said it was ‘urgent’ tough; which is an expression I’d an agreement with her and the reception staff to use, if I’m found to have cancer.



Well, when I’d got to the appointment things had got ‘interesting’.



Having previously asked me if I could change herself to be my named doctor, she had used that authorization to obtain a copy of the confidential report I’d be seeing with the professor, later.



As we’d discussed the report I could have been horrified, except that I do already have an awareness of most of my irritating complaints and, I do joke that I keep finding out new complaints, every few months.



Well I had learnt of yet one more new complaint, a cyst on my pancreas.



Needless to say, I had freaked about it; until after a visit to a friend, where it had been pointed out that the sort of cyst I have is akin to a blind boil…



That news had been… ‘interesting’…



Meanwhile, I heard from the dole, finally. I knew I would. Their representative is a middle woman, trouble is I respect her; yet she still lied, on their behalf, telling me I’d been sent a letter wit an appointment innit, for that afternoon. I took charge as it were and, told her there’d been no letter and, someone was lying, then said to her, "I'll be there of course, with my advocate."
