Get this...


... I received a letter from my GPs Surgery last week, asking me to come in and discuss the results of my recent kidney scan, due to long term high blood pressure.

So, me being me, I have been panicking for the last week, waiting for my appointment.

I went to see her last night.

Do you know why she wanted to see me?

Hmm?

Because, when they carried out the scan, they found...

A foetus.

And I might not be aware that I'm pregnant.

Riiiiight.

I'm actually 13 weeks pregnant now, and:-

I've been to the doctor's for a threatened mis-carriage, at six weeks.
I've seen my midwife, at 8 weeks, and have another appointment for 14 weeks.
I had to phone the doctor's to cancel my flu jab, because I was pregnant.
I've had three lots of blood tests carried out.
I've been to the hospital twice for scans, and already have another 3 appointments.
I TOLD the guy who scanned my kidneys that I was nine weeks pregnant.
And they have NO RECORD ON FILE OF ME BEING PREGNANT!

Muppets.

While I was there, she checked my blood pressure - which, pre-pregnancy was at 190/113 - and they were seriously worried, now that I'm preggers...? 140/86!!

How freaky.

She also asked me to take a urine test, and this is where it all goes a bit bleh - there was protein and blood in my urine. She thinks I may have been bleeding.

She's going to treat it as a water infection for now, even though I have no other symptoms, and has put me on a course of antibiotics, until a thorough test is done on my sample.

Bum.
