So I woke up in a bad way this morning. Shaking really badly (whole body shudders), freezing cold or boiling hot, breathless and a lovely golden colour.

Did the right thing, went to the Doctors.
He was very kind, although not impressed with me. Apart from anything else I had an emergency appointment without my full medical records being available and took up 40 minutes.

Anyway, I still won the lovely prize of an all-expenses paid trip to St James' Hospital in Leeds. A new one to add to my list. For tests only, although he sent me home to get some things together just in case they keep me in. Waiting for my car now. No, really, they are providing transport.

It's only a liver function test. He's worried this is a new development and wants to cover himself. Which is good of course, better than being fobbed off when there really is something serious.

Good for you for staying on top of things, Sundae. Hope the tests reveal something easily fixable.

I think it's great they provide transport.

Hopefully they provide it home as well...!

Sorry to hear that you are poorly sick.

Hope you'll be back in rude health ASAP. If not sooner.

Yup. She's spending a second night in hospital, allowed home tomorrow to collect more pyjamas and toiletries and tend to the cat (we have back up plans for the cat). She's allowed herself to get dehydrated, so is on an overnight drip. Also he an ultrasound scan today (I think). She may be in for another day or two, as I understand it.
She sends her love and thanks for the good wishes.
