health, positive...? sort of?
Given that I'm suffering from kidney failure, I absolutely did not expect a doctor to ever tell me "your sodium level is too low, you should eat more salty things"
hospital, blood test, bureaucracy, positive
I am once again impressed by the local hospital folks' problem-solving and administrative skills. They usually send me the lab form for blood tests by mail so that I can test at the local branch instead of the main location (which requires a train ride). But they forgot this time, and I *had* to get it done on Monday.
So I sent them an e-mail over the weekend while the department was already closed, asking if they could send me the lab form anyway, hoping that they'd figure out a fast-enough way, and pondering whether to opportunistically make a test appointment for Monday already even though I might not have a form to go with it.
I ended up doing that, but I needn't have worried; first thing this morning I got my lab form by e-mail, with the note "we've marked it urgent so that this time you can go do it without an appointment". Awesome. They'd apparently already foreseen this conundrum even though I didn't mention it to them.

@joepie91 congrats on the impending delicious food and snacks
re: health, positive...? sort of?
@rune Well to a point, I should still not overdo it, I assume :p And my favourite snacks are still verboten due to potassium :(
re: health, positive...? sort of?
@joepie91 of course but I bet you have a list of things you wouldn't mind eating a bit of again
re: health, positive...? sort of?
@rune Many of them are, unfortunately, potassium :p But not all!
re: health, positive...? sort of?
@joepie91 I love food so much I'm getting excited on your behalf

Judging from said doctor's puzzled look, they did not expect it either
