Hmmmm

So my exam went OK even the public health bit which I thought was going to be a nightmare. Been feeling quite tired lately but just found out I need to up my thyroxine dosage so that should help!!!

As a post exam and Dave late birthday treat we went for an amazing (and expensive) meal at Pollen St Social.
Dave has wanted to go there for ages and I promised him we would. They had horseradish sauce made into "snow" in liquid nitrogen which was then sprinkled over one course.
We had the tasting menu - 8 courses but Dave still had room for extra duck fat chips! My little fatty!
We had so much fun we have decided to make it our little Christmas tradition and treat to ourselves to do it the week before Christmas every year!!
This is a picture of the Turbot, carrot puree, cauliflower thing......
Just the best food we have ever eaten!
Last night we went to a TV filming of duck quacks don't echo, a new show for sky one presented by Lee Mack. Dave had a really good time, was a shame I was so tired but now I know it was thyroidy I feel better about that!
Had my follow up with the rheumatologist today, he feels the bone scan does not show arthritis which is good news! It's just I don't feel relief for some reason. Maybe cos I'm knackered. I'm sure I'll feel better tomorrow.
He thinks maybe I have this thing called hemachromatosis???? I suppose I have very mixed feelings as both myself and the rheumatologist thought it was psoriatic arthritis from my history and symptoms - he even asked if I got mouth ulcers and allergy to sun all of which I have along with psoriasis 10 years ago and joint swelling and pain etc. You  gear yourself up for it in terms of treatment and a plan and finally knowing whats going on. And then you don't have it.
Being genetically tested for it so we shall see. Just wish I wasn't in pain.......... Results probably after Christmas.
And here is a picture of gorgeous Walt to cheer us up!
