Another scan

I had a Dexa scan today. It looks like this:



Something to do with checking my bone density. The machine is very expensive and is in our private BUPA hospital. A deal is done between the NHS and BUPA to pay for the scan.

After lunch took J for a first appointment to a new homeopath. For his eczema. Which hadn't been too bad for a long time but flared up on his arms and neck when he got taken surprise by sunburn in March.
He has 2 pillules and instructions not to use mint toothpaste for a week (mint destroys the delicate balance of the remedy) so it's fennel toothpaste instead - yuk. Also no caffeine.
