Good Morning + what are you up to today and how is your weather

just spent whole day in hospital but they couldn't find anything wrong with me?? - 234 hrs before hand I was tossing to a fro with colic and sweating and was that an hallucination I saw ? = probably but as soon as my bum hit the hospital bed all cleared up = honest to god and hope die if I tell a lie. it is not much fun watching busy doctors and nurses bustling about and most of the time ignoring you cos they think you are shammin it but the best doc of all was a sturdy short built irish man - top of the mornin all the time - he even asked my where I came from in uk and I couldn't resist telling him "why the capital of Ireland of course" that made him chuckle and he even gave me a friends nudge and wink wink - true story - the let me out same day - no crime no sentence but I know an hallucination when I see one!!

75 and have spent the same length of time roughly in both UK and Oz - I think I could have easily got to the top of my tree [in fact turned a few down] in Uk - one close to Ma and Pa which was a tragedy should have taken it. but first tried HK for three years and that gave me the taste for travel and freedom [ironic now heh} and zest for a new life could have picked Canada or Newzealand but settled on Oz - have long lost friends there and would say it was a good choice - I think the weather has a big effect on life style and behaviors - the ozzies are genuinely friendly out going and love a barbie - so UK would have been stiff laced and cross all I's and T's' ozzie was more laid back and still is. and the sun sometimes is a bonus! my wife was offered a top professors job in Canada and turned it down - we nearly made that one - canada is a bit more reserved than oz - more like uk but more relaxed too and on the west coast have good weather and my sister happens to live there/!

morning all
Davo  what a frightening experience  for you happy to read you feel better now 
suns out here for now

@davo, She'l be right!

I had a couple of similar experiences about ten years ago.
Doctors couldn't deicide if it was anxiety attack or unknown virus.

well my lovely doc who was Irish seemed to be infull command of events but the lab results too ages to return probably had to send them to Broome which is two hrs away ? - anyway I suddenly felt much better and got sent home with the nurses scowling and crying silent cheat - I can smell them a mile off! 

I went in feeling body poisoning and came out a healed man - the art of medicine is not a precise science and can be easily deceived. the nursing care was wayfully low. but I can't blame them really all they see each day are cheats??

Sorry to hear about the nurses, mate.
The ones that I see here are all smashing.

outback nurses can be notoriously v.good or v.bad nothing in between - when a doc orders urgent blood tests and it takes 2 hrs in this day and age something is wrong - in this case a 2 hr journey. but at least I recovered without the aid of everything just lying on a bed trolley

morning all
glad to hear you are back to good health 
dry up to now here

Why did you wait 9.75 days after seeing the hallucination to go to the hospital?

Do you feel OK now?

11°C and cloudy in North Herts.

Apparently we had some heavy rain overnight but I didn't hear anything.
