I'm going to be immortalised, gawping at the Google Streetview car. :doh:

Exactly the same happened to me today!:eek:
On a training course, popped outside at lunchtime, thought "what's that funny looking car there doing...?":eek:

I'm back. Much quicker today.


I'm being referred on from great doctor, who thinks I am just too weird, but definitely thinks chances are I do have this relatively unusual secondary condition.

I'm not convinced actually. But partly because The irony about this would be extreme. Many times over ridiculous. Sufferers of This condition call it 'the ugly disease'. As I never try to hide the fact I am vain and the impact on how I look of ill health has been one of the hardest parts this prospect is not cheering me up much. I'm also cross that I am being referred to a specialist the type of which I already see. Consultant today feels this should have been tested for two years ago looking at my file. Thought treatment today is much better when this was first identified life expectancy was 4 to five years. That's not the case now, but I'll be piddled off if I've missed two years of treatment whilst people were saying well....what do you expect.......


Cheating death once seems good, twice would seem a bit of a roulette game I wouldn't enter and as I did go back and get medical help then I'll feel a bit let down. Its rare, but we know I'm a freak.


Oh well, not confirmed, and as I say, I am not convinced. I feel really well today ( apart from bloody right ankle) and was surprised that my bp was worse than last time. I wasn't stressed or flappy like often am, so no reason for it 'emotionally'.

Is it good that it has been identified or bad because you may have something? According to wiki, if I've got the right disease, it often takes 3-6 years to diagnose, so don't be too hard on the doctors.

The tests take a very long time. Haven't looked at Wikipedia.

The tests take a very long time it seems.

Its not identified, I'm not diagnosed, and might not have it. like I say, I am not convinced I do. The testing period is long on NHs too, my GP left a message for me saying we'll test again in three months. The consultant feels very strongly with two bp readings in a damp groups sort of level, most chilli tingly today when I was calm, fluctuations this is a very dangerous suggestion. If I have something So be it, I have known for a while somethings not right, whether it a just the main thing, this or something else I don't know. What I am not content about is to sit and wait while we can rule something out. ( or otherwise):


Just skimmed wiki and think you have the wrong one. Not sure. Will check again later.

Graham Norton is lovely. He straddled me in the green room, once. :rotfl: Doozer insists that it was him he straddled, and I appreciate it sounds more likely, but it was me. Doozer held his wine.

Have a nice time!

Too many questions. Don't know where to start.:D

Was recommended this TED talk by someone who works for a charity.

I expected some sort of justification on charities paying their workers well, but I was actually impressed.

I have no idea what all of this amounts to however your earlier post increased the disquiet I feel. Heavens knows what it must do for you.

Everyone must be the same. Staring at it, then the realisation of what it is, then the face you were pulling.

S'ok. I wouldn't fight over a bloke. If they want to go they should go. No point clinging onto something that isn't there any more.

(Last one never said he wanted to go. He never even admitted that there was an interest in anyone else. It took me snooping to find out and even then he'd try and make excuses as to why all wasn't as it appeared)
