Slightly to my surprise, Dr.Ku 'phoned within his two-hour "window". We went through the whole thing and he did a tick-box assessment which I passed (or failed,depending on which way you look at it) so he's doing a sleep apnea referral. That's one hurdle passed, now there's just a waiting list. No idea how long that will take but shan't be surprised if it's six months or more, such are the wonders of the NHS.
Some promising news in from Blood Cancer UK about antibody treatments for COVID in blood cancer patients:
We're gradually moving closer to my personal target of two COVID treatments effective in immune-compromised people. On the other hand, the Government seems to be in a state of total confusion over third "booster" vaccines. It's coming up to six months since our second vaccinations, and I should be near the front of the queue because of blood cancer but it isn't even clear yet whether boosters are going to happen at all. Or whether the government will use the opportunity to clear some of the vast over-stock of AZ. Or maybe it'll be Moderna? Decisions need to be taken quickly, and stuck to.
