It will not upset me to stay in for the next few weeks, except for essential excursions of course.
I am due a blood test at the GP next Monday and a review at the eye hospital the day after. If I am not contacted by either, I shall telephone to ascertain whether or not to attend. The blood test can wait, but I'd really like to know whether I have glaucoma, as suspected.

I suggest you contact your surgery for advice, it is has been announced routine hospital appts other than cancer treatment are to change. Maybe you can make a telephone appointment to obtain your results. Good luck I hope your results go well, I had suspected glaucoma but it turned out ok.

I have been given two sets of eye drops to reduce eye pressure, and shall continue them until advised otherwise. If it is glaucoma, I believe the drops will continue anyway (for life) but I'd still like to know the state of my eye pressure. If the hospital appointment is to be delayed, I can at least call in at the optician and ask for an eye pressure test. I'd be happy to pay for it to be done privately, but I'm sure the optician would waive any charge anyway.

Covid-19 in God's CountyIf tha hath a sniffle
And thi throat is sore as well
If tha’s findin' breathin' tricky

Then in a week tha’s feeling grand
Tha’ll be back at thi best
Tha can head out into t’ open
In thi flat cap and string vest.

If you see anyone in a supermarket filling their trolleys with toilet rolls, pasta and rice, please keep well clear. Stay safe my friends.
