I went to get him to sign a couple of medical certificates for an insurance claim I'm putting on for our wrecked holiday last week, and my singing course, which I should have been on this week, and he got me to do certain things.
I had a Peak Flow test, which I've never had before. That came out at 550, which is pretty good, apparently, for an old bugger with a throat infection. He weighed me - 115kg in my clothes, which is considerably less than our bathroom scales say, and he took my blood pressure, which was a bit unsporting and caused him some concern - 168/89. It's normally a lot lower than that. I pointed out that I've been putting on weight lately, largely becuase I'm a fat greedy bastard the weather has been so bad that I've scarcely been out on my bike.
I've got to go back again and see what the BP is next time round. I suspect I'll be bunged on another lot of tablets, which is a pain. I've carefully avoided blood pressure tablets up to now.
