Three-month medical checkup

Doctor puts me on a diabetes drug, Metformin, twice a day.

As for the platelet count I must see a hematology specialist. Before I could remind him of the wildly incorrect EKG a few months ago that showed nonexistent scars on my heart he said tests were sometimes wrong or misleading. I think sometimes the tests may not recognize temporary health events and thus give wrong results.

He knows I found the tests for the heart problem worrying and uncomfortable, and useless.

PS -- The red blood count is fine this time. I don't anemia after all, for now at least.
