My Diary
This is where I describe the recent events that concerned me about my health. I approached this from my personal experience and from a biochemical point of view.
Not Feeling Well
January 7th
I just got back from my holidays on the beach with my friends. I have not been feeling well, throwing up a bit in the morning...
Urine Test
January 9th
Today I got some test strips the same as we had during our BMS2021 tutorial. I dipped them into a sample of my urine.
Pregnancy Test
January 10th
Just to check that I am not pregnant I purchased a pregnancy test from the pharmacy and followed the instructions.
Went to the Doctor
January 12th
I knew I wasn’t pregnant and my urine tests were not bad but I tested positive for bilirubin and urobilinogen so I decided to go to the doctor because I was still concerned.
Blood Test
January 13th
I was really nervous going to the pathology service, I have never had blood taken before because I hate needles.
Reviewing My Notes
January 14th
Today I reviewed my notes on enzymes and the liver from my BMS2021 notes.
Pathology Lab Tour
January 15th
I went for a tour of the Pathology Lab thanks to my friend Sally.
Pathology Request
January 12th
The Doctor gave me a Pathology Request Form to go and get a blood test. I wonder what all those tests do.
