Looks nice and quiet. In major hospitals here they ask you if you prefer to die there or at home

Oh Bollocks

That didn't take you long to get seen, 8 hours wait isn't unusual over this side.

Intravenous anti biotics?

They’re concerned that it’s spreading across my face so I’ve been admitted. 
Weekends in hospital is the pits, I was meant to be riding on Sunday

Bollocks to that , I've spent enough time in hospitals to know that nothing gets done on weekends.  I'll go to A&E on Monday if it's not right.

Serious points for BOTM if you go back to hospital, @boboneleg

 

Hope it all goes well. Are you feeling any better?

Not my day today but my fortnight.

Just over two weeks ago I decided it might be a good idea to get some excersise and get rid of my podgy belly, so I set about a plan...

Day 1 2 x 10kg weights, pick up one in each had from the floor, carry them upstairs, place them down on the landing, pause for 5 secs, pick them up carry them back to the living room, repeat this 5 times, then pause for 5 minutes and repeat 5 times, so that was half a ton up and half a ton back down, it was strenuos mainly on my breathing.
Day 1 done, day 2 the same, though part way through I start feeling a bit ill so I carry on but just do half as maybe I was pushing a little too hard.
The next morning I wake up with my ribs on fire, every tiny muscle that controls my breathing was cramping up, the pain was mental and trying to relax muscles you don't normally control conciously was very difficult.
Anyway, I went to the docs, she said it was an infection despite symptoms like not being able to straighten up not fitting the diagnosis, she gave me antibiotics, a few days later I had to go back as the pains was still mental, I hadn't ben able to lay down to sleep as tilting my upper body made the pain much worse and caused pain in my head too, the docs gave me some full strangth cocodamol, that took the edge off a tiny bit but not enough.
Last day of my antibiotoics and things hadn't improved, went back to the doc who said there's no infection now, it'll be fine.

2 days later I think I might be able to sleep in my bed and lay down, nope, fucking nope, all the pain straight back to day 1 (it was lucky I did that)
Next morning I ask for a cal back from the docs, I can't get there due to the pain, this time I got a doc who figured something wasn't right (fluke 2) so he sent me to A&E where the doctor just happened to have dealt with the same symptoms numerous times, she insisted that the radiographer does a cat scan as the radigropher thoughthere was no need, turns out the doc was right, when the radiographer phoned her she confirmed it was a clot in my lung as well as more infection
Two weeks of ridiculous pain, damned lucky t still be here, no thanks to the incompetence of the first 3 doc visits

Anyway, still in a shit load of pain but apparently it will improve over the next few days as the clot busting meds do their thing, they did want to keep me in but no beds in the hospital, typical NHS that

 

Moral of the story, don't be a cunt, be a fatty, excersise is not good for you (OK maybe 1 ton a day for a 64 year old who hasn't kept fit for several years might have been a tad ott)

Fat is fashionable .. rejoice in it

Good job that doctor understood what's going on Terry, how do they get rid of the clot ?

Time plus blood clot meds, injection in the stomache then tablets for a month or two
Yeah, damned lucky, I wouldn't have survived, 3 times other doctors had me right there in front of them, clueless, incompetence
It can take weeks or months but I'm definitely getting a tiny bit better each day now, the "Tourettes" is fading away LOL
