"There are good checklists and bad"
Just in case anyone else is trying to remember what routine medical care looks like, here's the list I made for me, X, J, and Kit of checkups one or more of us might want to schedule now that the adults are vaccinated and dropping covid numbers are making it safer for Kit to go out as well:
General physical + bloodwork (including annual review of meds for interactions and needed changes)
Eyes
Ears/nose/throat
Teeth
Shoulders
Arms/hands
Back
Knees
Feet
Skin
Cardio
Pulmonary
Neuro
Psych
Sleep
Allergy
Endocrine
Gastro
Colorectal
Gyno/urogenital
Chest-o-gram
Medical/assistive device maintenance/replacement
Also regular personal care:
Therapy
PT/personal training/gym
Massage
Mani/pedi
Depilation
Haircut
Dietitian/nutritionist
You might want to schedule one or more of those too! And let me know if I missed anything...

I need to book eye tests and dental for me and the kids (opticians are open but our closest one closed down), have a massage next Wednesday, and may chase more physio if actually doing the exercises I have doesn't help me or in particular Conflux.
Thankfully other appts have worked quite well via phone (child mental health services have embraced phone and video appts, as have the sleep clinic).
And even more thankfully, my AZ vaccine appears to have fixed my long Covid. So the chest Xray I had on the same day was a bit redundant, though always good to know my lungs work.
