I come every 2 weeks

I come every 2 weeks for bloods as I have Chemo treatment which coincides. I pre book a blood test every second Monday but if for some reason I am feeling unwell on the Wednesday and unable to go for treatment that week, I find it difficult to rearrange the blood test to coincide with the change of date to coincide with the chemo treatment. I have been advised by the Healthwatch Suffolk CDO today to ask my GP to refer me for an urgent blood test on these occasions.
