Medical matters

I have to make an appointment for the other bunion to be operated, so says my GP, without me asking.  He thinks that the Hallux Vulgus is causing the irregular shooting pains in my feet and so kinaestherapie is prescribed! I had intense deep massage from the osteopath in UK for the problem!
I'm putting both treatments on hold whilst the series of two hour return journeys to various clinics, establish the current urgent medical problem for a friend who has experienced a sudden onset of double vision.
Within ten days before Easter he visited the GP, the Opthalmologiste (eye specialist), had a blood test, visited another office to make appointment for brain/head scan which was on a different day, made a phonecall for an appointment with Orthoptique (eye test) which was the day after telephoning, had a Cardiologue chest xray.  After Easter there is a further appointment with the Opthalmologiste and a revisit to the Orthoptique with a possible visit to the Neurologue!!!
One of the eye muscles is weak and so has to wear a patch to rest the eye.  Hopefully for him it will not be long before it repairs itself.
