FROM WHERE IT REMAINS SAFE

I have been feeling somewhat ... rushed and out of time of late and this may have shown in my posts, sorry about that.

For one thing I have an electrocardiograph strapped top me which I thought at first was going to be an electroencephalograph because that made more sense. So I was calling it an EEG and electroencephalograph to start with. Then I realised it was actually an ECG they were fitting and I called it that but then kept stating electroencephalograph instead of electrocardiograph. Lol.

I know full well that cardio means the heart but at first I thought it would be my brain waves as like I said to a nurse ,"Why fit me with this thing after telling me to take the pills that stops the episodes from occurring?"

I was told that it would still pick things up? Umm yeah, what and how? I always need the specifics so In understand what is going on and anything else is just vague to me.

Like for instance I was always told that they have to check my heart regularly now? Oh? They do? Well when is this supposeed to start because it has not started yet. I have had a trace taken by two hospitals, I think as it may be only one, and by one emergency paramedic at my house.

Yeah when you use the term regular ... that tends to imply ... well regular and that the location would be the same, or more specifically the people or testers. I have not had a heart trace performed by either the same location or even the same people yet. Unless I get to the stage where I have been tested three times in the same location I would not call anything 'regular'.

But ... if I drop dead then they are covered because their records would show that they tested for shit and right now I am undergoing that testing despite the fact I have cut the episodes down to nothing by taking my blood pressure pills again.

Except ... these blogs exist and if I ever drop dead ... well, God help them! Lol.

I also have been buggered up with my regular meetings with this ... business dude and now I am told I have to go for some other .. tests. Oddly this new test is one I have very much wanted to attend and it now looks like I will, fingers crossed.

This test is a big feature for my blog and ... ooh boy ... has it come at the absolutely best time ever? Lol.

But ... it gives me more to do and think about and ... this ECG monitor is bloody annoying as I am continuously checking to see if the pads are still attached! Repeatedly. Also I am to press I button I will never press as I am supposed to do this when I experience an episode I will not have.

I told the nurse that I should design and build these mobile machine of theirs as the design leaves a lot to be desired. The pads do not attach all that well and if they come loose ... there is no little alarm or beep to let you know!

As I am being rather busy you can imagine that there stands a good chance of the pads loosening and indeed they certainly have at least once. The rest of the time one or other of the pads feels like they are being pushed and I am continuously pressing down on my jumper because I think one of them might have been pulled free. 

#Facepalm!

It would help if I knew the answer to just two questions that I have been waiting for since early January for something that takes a maximum of 12 weeks. We remain in the dark on that one.

Anyhow ... those involved in handling it told us that they would keep us informed. Yeah well ... just like my explanation of the word 'regular' that word comes to the fore once again when you are told you would be kept informed. When we get a second set of data sent to us then you can lay claim to keeping people informed. Instead of waiting with absolutely no idea at all I have decided to make the first move and ask. I then find out just the following day that one other of us asked a couple of days before. They had received nothing in four days.

Unfortunately for those sending communiques stating what they will do they know little about emails being proof and do not seem to even apply that to letters they send. They are also completely oblivious, though I may have mentioned it, that I am familiar with the governing bodies in these case and have no qualms about contacting them, should I feel the need to.

I think after about a week of hearing nothing I will start to get this urge to contact regulators and the like?

If there is one thing that anyone coming here long enough has noticed ... it is that I do like to kick up a God awful stink when I think people are not doing their jobs, are acting highly suspicious or even corrupt.

Or as I would actually want to happen maybe I will get the two answers I need right now so that I can continue on with my planning and stop stressing out about it. Because as the days go by I will be getting more and more stressed out about it. I would say that by about mid May on hearing nothing I will likely be close to exploding.

Hmm .. I wonder? Did I mention to them that I have these blogs?

Well ... they are solicitors so the divulging of being a blog author will likely mean very little to nothing to them?

Anyway ..

And oh this is a good one!

I read this the other night but then forgot about it, well I do have memory problems you know?

An Italian prosecutor told someone in an interview that he had evidence of charities colliding to get people into Europe from North Africa, Syria etcetera etcetera.

Never considered the possibility but now hearing this it would not surprise me too much. I did think that this was something I should have foreseen myself.

I will tell you what it is though ... annoying and bloody highly annoying at that.

I would like to say a couple of things to brain dead idiots and morons like this...

Why don't you go to these countries and go up to the government's and tell them they have to treat their people better?

Anyone see that last Rambo film they did with the ignorant and stupid bible bashers? Did this report sound anything like that?

No, what they do is stand in a country that is safe and hold their arms out to a bunch of backwards, dangerous and murderous people and tell them to come to a country where they can carry out their crimes and the punishment is nothing like that which they would receive in their own country.

I won't go into details or the funny misunderstanding that went on, I have talked about it on here, but I've had foreigners I've been friendly with on the Internet tell me that we are being stupid and naive and letting on the crap no one else wants. They all said we need to stop and they much of the world has had a great deal of respect for Britain but that this had been waning.

That was eight years ago.

God only knows, with everything that has come out, the corruption, the lies and the exodus of immigrants, what those foreigners think of this country now?!

I'd be scared to hear their answers today.

I'm sorry but if your that stupid and/or naive you should not be allowed to work for a charity like that.
I also think it's a terrible beach of their positions to decide they know better and make decisions that ultimately cost innocent lives of people in the UK.

If you think for one second that they don't cost lives ... well don't state it in front of me because I will burst out laughing.

I cannot think of a single occasion where I thought the actions of a charity has possibly cost the lives of the British public.

I saw this on the BBC and thought you should see it: Italy migrant crisis: Charities 'colluding' with smugglers - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-39686239

MY HEALTH UPDATE

Sorry ...

I umm completely forgot to do this update!

Well I have been somewhat ... busy and ... literally the day after, might have been two days after ... cannot recall, I had to ... hmm let us say I had a meeting of sorts. This meeting was quite important to me and to my ... online escapades.

At this meeting I had, or thought I did, show some stuff and in the meeting I was basically asked to re-do this stuff to a provided template.

At the hospital I was seen pretty swiftly, I must say. My blood pressure measured 159 or 169 over 110 and they were concerned about the 110, diastolic, reading. The Doc, a pretty nice one, stated he was more concerned about the 110 reading and went wide eyed when I told him that I had a monitor in my backpack and my blood pressure was 197/121 prior to leaving my house. It was why I went to A&E really as I had been ignoring the weird chest pain and palpitations up until then. Well I say 'ignored' but the truth was I had intended to make a GP appointment for the last couple of weeks and kept forgetting. Public services keep asking or expecting me to do crap kind of screws up my memory for doing the stuff I need to.

I really expected a phone-call from the GP the next day but it never came and I have now been in there and handed in the results given to me by North Middlesex Hospital and on the letter it states they want me monitored for 48 hours.

So I had previously had a blood pressure monitor off the NHS I wore for 24 hours I think it was and now I am going to have some kind of cardiograph machine attached for 48 hours?

It is bloody typical that this is occurring right now, of all the bloody times!

I have two major things going on concurrently that I am either working hard on or waiting ... hard on that I need to have completed in a specific order for specific reasons. One I have no control over and one I have a little bit of control over.

Also the day I had this meeting I then had to drop of the hospitals results and letter to my GP afterwards and I had received a phone-call from Halfords to tell me that my forks and wheel off my mountain bike had come back from SRam Tech. So I then had to go there.

I picked them up but they were in several pieces in a box, so I put them together so I could walk the damn thing home.

Then I watched a movie, as I do often when I get home as I am often shattered, only to be disturbed ten minutes from the end because a friend wanted me to catch some shrimps, yes shrimps, from his aquarium so he could treat his sick fish with copper sulphate.

Then I got home and took a second attempt, first one failed, at putting my suspension forks back on my bike for an hour before realising something was missing before discovering it had somehow ended up on the floor under my printer?! Grrr ....

Then I had to feck around with the brake caliper as some reading this might recall that after the fisco I discovered that my brake disc had a very slight bend in it.

After re-arranging some washers I managed to get the wheel spinning with not even the slightest rubbing taking place!

Then I had to do this 16 page ... umm, let us say 'report'?

These chest pains and heart palpitations was something I did not get to explain to a certain family member I rowed with in two visits by them.

But then I know that one symptom I had, or at least the word for it of 'palpitations', I would have been interrupted and gotten a lecture on as they claimed to have had it going on 20 years ago. Except the word 'palpitations' does not mean what they stated in did when I was a kid and used to hear her and my father state it. Because of this I thought it was nothing much really so I was surprised when the A&E Doctor and nurses were so concerned about it.

Within 30 minutes or so I had been seen three times by three different people. I was out within an hour and that was after being left in a ward for 20 minutes.

Oh yeah and that day of the ... meeting,GP results drop in and suspension fork pick up? Yeah it rained a lot that day too!

So that one rare day where I have countless things going on and have to complete and it bloody well rains!

A time when things for me are gradually ... making their way to the ... launch pad and I start having these damn chest pains and palpitations?! Bloody well typical.

I did state twice to the family member that never listens that with my luck I will drop dead before I reach ... hmm let us say the take off point?

Yeah there are some that know what it is I have going on, but with some things not all the details in full just yet. But they kind of know the two things I have going on right now. Though I have fallen out with one so they are going to have to find out third hand ... and several days to several weeks late I am afraid. So yeah they might find it bloody strange that I am having these issues right now when I have these two things going on.

Both Sod's Law and Murphy's Law both acting in tandem currently to screw me over.

Oh and I have to now get fit, did go out on my more expensive and reliable bike for 11 miles yesterday ... with no chest issues luckily which is why it came as a surprise when I had an issue today While out. Which is the first time this has occurred while out of the house.

But I have this stuff going on while a certain public service is placing pressure on me to do a load of crap that gets neither me or them anywhere and is now in actual fact both pointless and ... academic! I am speaking, of course, about the DWP!

But as like so many other times previous it is just another one of my intricate webs that many know as traps and just as ever I have many things I have to focus on as a kind of background check or behind the scenes look.

You might say a 'covering my own arse' endeavour is going on?

I just hope I do not make it onto Calum's List ... not right now at any rate and if one thing I am waiting on is far worse, or less, than I had calculated then I might welcome making it onto Calum's damned list?!

I think I will go do a Google search on heart palpitations and chest pain now that I have finished typing this?

Fingers crossed!

EDIT: Oh yeah, in case you missed it I stopped my blood pressure pills because I was told to because I was having blackouts and falling unconscious ... just for the record, lol.
