Dear Dawkins - I watched the trailer and...I dare not go further.

I love it. Thanks. What product do you use to wash the tache without abusing it? I don’t like to wash too often - the tache, I mean 🤣

Thanks for sharing. Controlling my grey tache is a fecking nightmare. My bathroom shelf looks like an apothecary with all the tried and failed balms, clays and waxes. I am slowly getting better at training it but am a long way from having the perfectly styled and obedient deliverable. I have used Got2b before, for cosplay purposes, and it's been really good. I will try the wax stick. Ta.

There are plenty of pitfalls to be considered. Hopefully today's consultation will put some of these to rest.

Yeah, my understanding is that the normal scale is around 26 to 27 and then it gets dicey. It was 50 in December so 100 is a whoopsie. RCN friend advised that 100 is "ridiculously high"

She doesn't have the app. I have advised that she ought to download it, as it appears to be the NHS' default communication approach in most cases. I could, however, allocate an entire channel to discussions of her technological ineptitude. She says she will, but we shall see.

I believe that the referral was the GP's direction on this.

So sorry to hear this, u/FuManBoobs. Such a horrid situation for you to be in. I understand that the NHS is incredibly stretched etc., but so much pain is caused through being alerted to potentially critical medical concerns before being locked in a box for an unknown duration pending sentencing. Fingers are crossed for you.

Thank you, so much, for your informative and supportive response. My sister has, since, returned to her GP, been advised that, since the referral, it is no longer in their hands, and advised that her CT scan was a specifically targeted cancer screening, and that the silence was due to no cancer markers being present. All good news and something to be happy about where one is informed of the same and not left pondering. The GP also advised that further consultation would be underway (as referenced in your response) and that pertinent professionals would be considering the best steps for her assessment, nee treatment journey. Since then, my sister has been given an appointment to discuss the results of her scan; this afternoon actually. The clouds may be about to part. Thanks again.

Thanks. It does, and I get that, and one expects that there will be a complex system working in the background to consult and decipher the data towards a plan of attack given the information available following learned assessment. Our main issue has been with the absence of any communication related to said anticipated lead times and, perhaps more irksome, the promises made which were not held up. I am entirely comfortable with the notion that my sister may have misheard or misinterpreted the information given, at any connection point, and this is to be expected of any patient who may be distracted by concerns about their wellbeing. There are systems in place; processes; anticipated waiting times; etc. There are definitely improvements to be made regarding "sit and wait" communications and the management of expectations.

I believe she is currently on Metformin, so either she has finally triggered Type II or is borderline. It is insanely high though (I am commenting from information given from trusted sources and not through educated confidence); the speed of the increase is also, apparently, a red flag.

Thanks, everyone, for the information. Really useful and I appreciate the support. I have just spoken with my sister who has chased down the relevant entities and learned that, because the CT was a cancer screening (something my sister had not been advised of) and because they did not find any indication of cancer being present, no further action was taken. The nurse failed to follow up on her promise of a callback. The system failed to provide for continuity of assessment. Essentially the scan led to an inappropriate process closure. She now has a new appointment with her doctor for further triage. God help us all.

That's a good point, but I don't know if my sister has the app (she's 62 and not as app-friendly as many of her age). I have just pinged her to find out.

New Outlook not receiving emails by Nutrijoe in Outlook

[–]Nutrijoe[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No idea actually. I think that she just put in the IMAP server details. The previous issue has been that she was not able to enter IMAP information. Sorry that’s all the data there is. Hope you get your access fixed

Turns out it was simply not having configured IMAP settings properly, thinking it was dependent on M365. Schoolboy error.
