Did @foggy call the hospital in retaliation for disturbing his nurses?

I did think about letting him get his own back Madness prevailed that day the suspense was killing me. But then he had us all hooked and still look back on him as an inspiration . top bloke is foggy

I worked with Carol recently when she took another job with Anthony Nolan to cover maternity.

Lovely woman and so is Kaylee.

Good stuff, my Dad's post mortem found he had a damaged Aortic valve but didn't bother with going to the doctors because he hated hospitals!

tbh mine was found incidently so ive bern monitored for the past 4 years or so. Right up until i went in i felt pretty normal So it can be very easily overlooked by anyone

How did you find there was a problem?

Had some kind of chest infection and Consultant in Immunology (allergies) gave me a thorough examination lymph nodes etc then listened to my chest with stethoscope and when finished asked me how long had i had a Heart murmer told her that i never knew i had one That resulted in a transthoracic Echo being done a week or so later. Materialised the valve was Bicispid and a genetic fault at birth. It also picked up the ascending thoracic aneurysm. apparently one of leading causes of sudden death . I was told what i can and cant do and monitored every 3 months for the past 4 years
