Hi Terry

Thank you for replying. I thought to 3 months was to long and did ask this at

the time. Apparently this is normal to be checked out every 3 months the reason

I was given is that she has been tested at 4 tablets, 2 tablets, and 1 tablet

before they put her on 1 1/2 tablets so they tell me they know where she will

be. Right from the very start I was told she would end up on 1 1/2 tablets.

I found out 2 days ago I got the blood test timing wrong. They want her tested 6

weeks after her last visit to the Endocrine team and then they want to see her

again 6 weeks after this not for a blood test but to see a Endocrine team Doc I

think will find out more one the 21st.

The reason I had written in was I suppose to make sure that I was right in

thinking that yes she should get checked out and that it wasn't just me thinking

I needed another blood test for my piece of mind. She has gone from hating blood

tests to accepting she has to have them so I don't want to over do them if that

makes sense.

She has had 6 tests since Feb already so she was over the moon when she thought

she didn't need another till August not so happy now she needs one in July.

Bye for now

Take Care
