You Just Have To Love This Diagnosis!
Wednesday, June 6th, 2007 02:27 pmYes - I saw the specialist this morning as I had been back to the doctors 3 times about the cough and breathing problems that I was having after the chest infection that had started in mid-April.
Fortunately it was the local cottage hospital I went to - as our main hospital is about an hours drive away (minimum) and the appointment was for 9am. The doctor was on time - and I actually had a 20 minute appointment - so that was great. He asked loads of questions - did loads of tests and then pronounced his diagnosis.
Shall I put it behind a cut in case it is too traumatic for you to read? No - I will be brave ... He told me ...
That I had ...
(wait for it ...)
A .... COUGH !!
How about that - years at college and he told me what everyone else who has seen me in the last 2 months has told me!!

Be glad that is isn't something more (I guess the doctor knows what he does, right?) :)

Date: 2007-06-07 01:59 am (UTC)Coughs these days just seem to linger forever.
So glad to hear it was nothing serious and you will be better soon.
Maybe you just need to escape damp old England for a tropical island with sun and warm weather. Hang on I think we all need that therapy and I would like Cabana Boys with mine *g*...
