Dear Kate,
Thanks for the information, I am going to the GP tomorrow/today (sheesh
it really is 2am here!! Been up all night working!) to check things out,
but will probably be told to wait and ask the gynae (seeing him next
13th sept) but I should get some info from the GP too.
Thanks again,
Take care
Lisa
