My dad's side of the family has always been a bit peculiar. A recent email from my uncle Brian exemplifies this peculiarity to the nth degree....

PENNY’S PROGRESS - Updated after Addenbrooke’s visit on 27th Sept 2006.

Since the 22nd Aug 06 appointment with Dr Clatworthy (works in Dr Pritchard’s clinic), an all day appointment (0800hrs until 20.00hrs) was booked for 1st Sept 06 for more blood tests, a scan and a biopsy. On that day scan revealed no physical abnormality (blockages, stones etc). Biopsy done at 1400hrs (had to take two samples a first was not successful).

27th Sept 06, 1530hrs appointment, doctor stated that the result from the biopsy was that medication had caused the kidney malfunction. Cannot qualify which drug it was that caused the problem. Dr asked for another blood sample and has booked another appointment for one month’s time in case. Meanwhile Addenbrooke’s will write to our GP (copy us the letter), which should state what has happened. If blood levels are OK, the one-month’s time appointment will be cancelled.

In summary she is feeling a lot better than she was which confirms what the blood levels have indicated.
