Happened again after a weekly shop at Tesco so ended up calling 111 (yes, lol at me) who suggested I go to GP on Monday and get some blood tests etc. if necessary.
Nothing online seems to really hit the symptoms apart from Erythromelalgia, which is incredibly rare so is probably little more than a remote possibility. Fun times.
This makes for riveting reading, I'm sure.
Well it's been nice knowing you.
Rang GP to get an MRI scan arranged as my back is still not 100% after 4 months and 2 physio sessions (as well as tell him about the COVID sensory disability). Was told he only works Mondays and Thursdays and that I'd need to phone tomorrow. Great service.
Anyways, got a kickabout booked in for 7pm today so may well run it into the ground by then but fuck it, I'm gonna turn up an hour early and drink in the atmosphere
It could be, someone's gotta have the rare stuff. Worth mentioning to the GP if the symptoms really do fit since it's unlikely to be something they'd have on their radar.Originally Posted by AyDee
Got a chest x-ray Monday as a precaution but feel a lot better since the doctor trialled me on inhalers so it just turns out I have fulfilled my holy trinity destiny as a speccy, flakey skinned asthma twat.
Awesome, you're one of us. My asthma got miles better as soon as I moved out. My old room was cramped and damp so I got a lung full of that every morning. Now the only time I use my inhaler is when I'm vacuuming or dusting. And when I run my legs pack in before my lungs. Quite a turnaround.
Rang this morning at 10, he was fully booked. But they arranged for another GP to call me back (why didn't they offer this yesterday?). I asked for a time window and they said they can't provide that, just that it'll be sometime during the day. So I put my phone by the balcony doors for the entire day, the only place in my flat I get signal.Rang GP to get an MRI scan arranged as my back is still not 100% after 4 months and 2 physio sessions (as well as tell him about the COVID sensory disability).

The doctor rings twice in the space of 10 minutes during a work call. I ring back the practice 5 mins later to let them know of what'a happened.
"Nah, I'll have to make an appointment with Dr. Fatwa for tomorrow as Dr. Mujahideen tried to ring you a few times already today and she has other people to ring"
1. Yes, so can she not ring me after ringing them? Her workload has not changed.
2. Do you think we can all clear our day and sit by the phone waiting for your fucking band of ethnics to read out NHS direct pages to us?
3. RL you're a cunt.
A GP's workload would have you crumbled into a pile of dust topped with the world's largest non-functioning organ within a week.
Today's NHS Direct reader said "it might have been COVID but until we have antibody tests I can't confirm. Nothing else I can do". And instead of sending me for MRI scans for my back, she wants me to go in on Monday so she can feel my massive aubergine in person.
Does anyone have an update on Sincere?
Nothing except the thread tag I think.
Mrs has been confirmed Coeliac. Antibodies were so high she didn't even need a biopsy lols.
So it's not just a case of 'no pasta lolz' like I thought it was, it's insane the precautions you have to take.
Asked the same questions, touched my vertebrae to 'make sure it's not cancer' and practiced her fucking pidgin English. 25 mins of my time wasted.
Have taken measures into my own hands now, going to work under the assumption it might be my dining room chair (which I find very comfortable) and instead go through 35 hours of my week squatting/kneeling/standing for 4 weeks.
Yes, lads. I had a nasty infection which caused me to leak out of every opening, with insane stomach and back pains. Ive just lived in bed and the shower for the past how many months. Im feeling much better now. Sam Igor and Taz reached out via text recently. I appreciate TTH concerns. Im good now.
He’s not dead!
I'm a twit
You had Ebola?
Probably.You had Ebola?
Genuinely really happy to hear from you. I was sure you were dead.
Welcome back Sincere. May all your sphincters be competent for the foreseeable future.
Is John ok? He hasn't abused me in ages, has he been around?

We need a thread where we periodically check if someone's dead.
I assume people are in touch with Toby?
Toby just thought he was too good for us.
Glad you're okay, Sincere. That infection sounds fucking horrible.
Yeah. Given my Dad passing on, it was bad. My mom was really going through given the bad year we have had.
Frig. Glad you're through that. I'm going through some weird toe and fingertip shit. Looks like some trapped blood so maybe a change of shoes is needed. My swollen fingers have calmed down but now my skin's really starting to dry out.
I'm so sorry man. Stay healthy. Is it a chronic infection thing, or just a chance happening?
Pussy
I had some tests and nothing is long term, but in going for more tests in the new year.
More like GS donned him into oblivion before setting off on his own absence/victory lap.
What about? I don't remember that.
That sounds awful. Good to see you back.
Sincere.
He's not dead, excellent news.
How much longer do we have to be nice to him? It's really hard.
#TeamPussy fearing the return of The Rebel.
Calling him 'Tobias' slowly wore away at his carefully-constructed air of nonchalance until he had no option but to withdraw from posting.
What happened to (one of the worst usernames we ever saw) nickfootie5?
I'm a twit
I always assumed that was his age when he chose the username.
Was that the fella who's mum asked us all to be nice?
Nah, I think that was number_25 or whatever he called himself.
Sincere
Awaiting the results of a chest x-ray, hopefully it's nothing and not 'you have weeks to live lol'.
The dead or alive thread should include former 'big' posters gone AWOL too, for extra stalker points.
Kieranthegoalkeeper wasn't it?
Christ my login still works. Agreed, appalling name.
Just a long time lurker now with no enthusiasm to post.
Was it your mum that Bamster offered to shag and if so did she enjoy it? I imagine him to be an unnecessarily aggressive lover but some women like that.
No I don’t believe that was me.
I'm sure he would still be willing. Drop him a PM.
Get back to posting.
I'm a twit
Are you willing to shag his mum as a sweetener?
Toby's active on facebook.
Who else can we call out? Where's OIMOI, GS or Dave Challinor?
Also welcome back Sincere, glad you're not dead.
Elth
Did anyone hear back from John?
