MyChart

Checking on my Green Card

I have mentioned several times the excellence of Japanese healthcare whilst generally poo-pooing healthcare in San Francisco. Well, I take a lot of this back.

I am now locked into the MediCal system here and it works very well. I get free health care and medication and above all I get the app MyChart. Blood test results, appointments, prescriptions are all done on paper in Okinawa but here there is a fantastic app.

So good
Hemoglobin is the important one. It has gone up to 10.7, which is very encouraging.
Notice very low value 10 days ago. Yay for steroids!

Thank you MediCal!

I am much more energised and head off to the Mission to buy exotic food. There are fantastic Mexican/Chinese fish and meat stores around Mission /24th.

Nice weather.
Fabulous fish! I get a slab of Atlantic Cod.
Chinese ladies squabble over Fish Heads
If you see an Octopus – buy it1
I buy lots of Goat.
Beef Tongue

I head off for lunch.

Great place!
Asada, Fritas. Delicious.
The Mission is such a vibrant part of the city.

    Too many fritas but that octopus does look great. I’ll take it.

    Good to see your haemoglobin is looking to be on the up – now for the rest of them!

    I’ve been introduced to MyChart, courtesy of my broken wrist. I find it v clunky. We have an NHS app here, and also Patient Access, which are much easier.
    But I have a box for letters, where you have one for bills!

    The NHS has had a bad rap recently, but I’d like to recommend it to all.

    Love Annxx
