At the local surgery again today. I had my referral letter come from the hospital for the 19th May, so that was good. Then a few days later I had another letter saying it was cancelled. I told the GP this and he was very concerned and said, “No, you need to go in straight away.” He phoned up the local hospital and booked me in for 10:00 the next morning. I am very relieved as I’m starting to get concerned now that this has been going on for months with the opposite of progress.
He then asked to look at what remained of my wart, took a scalpel and deftly shaved it down as much as he could, then re-froze it. That was to be the last time as a couple of weeks later it was completely gone. I still think it was the wart that triggered all of this, damn it!
So, I finally get to see a specialist tomorrow thank god.
Did I already say I was very relieved? I’m also now quiet nervous. The GP seemed very concerned, and knowing he used to be a dermatology specialist, I suspected he had some idea that it wasn’t a run of the mill type of rash and that something deeper and more unpleasant was going on.
If that was the case then it turns out he was right.
