So every 3 hours they have been doing blood pressure and sugar levels. the last one had my pressure at 135 over 70 which is really very good, but then im not doing anthing except lay on my bed and watch disney channel. BUT SUGAR LEVELS....normally im in the average 7% range. highest being 8.7 first thing this morning. the 1900hr reading was .....3.2 !!!!
They then did it 4 times and it got worse, dropped to 2.9. Was given 3 glucose bombs to drink. a glucose bomb is lucazade with ADDEDD glucose. 250ml of a semi clear liquid but with 300grams of raw sugar in it. waited 5 mins and re tested. gone up to 4.2. then given 2 in a plain white wrapper marked with a nhs logo and a big blue M. MARS BAR. waited 5 mins re checked. 7.4. big sighs all round. i will now have a iv glucose drip each morning ! before first test.

now i have heart burn ! i asked head nurse at 1905 for some gaviscon, its now 1947, and they are doing shift hand over so wont be getting hat any time soon !

had my MRI scan at last at 1430. but thats only because i went and found the MRI deptand asked them when i was getting the scan done id been told about havibg each day ive been here.MRI head man said, but we told the ward you could come up at any time, did they not send you up now with your notes ? NO i said, i found my own way up here as i felt i was getting messed about. 1 sec he says, makes phone call., Comes back to me, its ok we will do scan without your notes.Found out why the ward havent sent you up, they have lost , well they are saying temperelly misplaced, hospital speak for LOST your notes. They will need to find them for monday ward rounds.!!!!!!!!!
SOHAD MY SCAN but dont know if new wound is good enough to go home or not, as the consultant who would make that call, was here till 1420hrs and then left till wed next week. but Mr Brown is here sun and monday, so maybe he will decide?

a i have no news feeds from outside i may try and find todays rugby on catch up on line, first of the 6 nations games or watch ancient alliens on discoveryor better still, the full serises of CURSE OF CANVEY ISLAND, the search for the lost tomatoe shapped ketchup bottles from wimpy . better than OAK ISLAND and buried pirate treasure.

After conducting a though internal inquiery into the missing bap breakfast, it transpires my order WAS NEVER delivered t the ward. It vanished some where between the main kitchen area and the main doors to my ward.so its begining to look like a 'inside job ' ! One Essex's finest isnt availble so we have DCI Harry Snapperorgans on the job. He expects results soon.

i filled out the hospitals ';tell us about you' form....

Q1 what do you like ?
A1 i like my coffee like my women, hot fast dark strong wet, though warmish / tepid, slow light weak and damp through to moist, are also exceptable

Q2 what dont you like?
A2 simple, TORIES, not simple as is retarded tories but just ALL TORIES

Q3 what is your support ?
A3 A jock strap, eyond that prob fictional.

Q4 what would ou like us to call you?
A4, since i have mobility issues that just doubled in severity, you can call me anything you like as i cant chase after you, but please dont call me late for last orders at the bar.

Q5 what do you expect to do today
A5 get a bit better ?

there where big boxes to fill in m answers but i think i phrasied them to bullet points .

There is a very annoying long bleeeeeeeeeeeep followed by a high pip noisey some where in my room, its like some dreaded north korean tourture designed to weaken the resolve of amarican POW's. Theres a rumour going round cell block FREDRICK BANINGTON that Big Jock Mc Henserson is starting a tunnel as he has been here for 84 days and its been 2 days since they have worked out whats wrong with him.

the nuring staff are currently running about a bit. seems not just a doctors round this morning but the 2 docs whos ward this is and the hospitals cheif matron AND the vascular consultant, who i used to know when he was a junior doctor in Southend....calling him by kis first name seems to upset people, not him, but others around him. but he calls me Chris, and h changed the mame on the board for my bed, from Mr to LORD Chris (then my surname). as he thinks its funny re bu a title. he is gping to do it also when he goes on break. he finds it ammiusing, that the of a turkish / greek kebab shop owner from Bradford can be a Scots LARDE ! Till i pointed out if he had married well, he could have been a DUKE of Edinburgh.lol. hes going to make his boss boss mr brown call him melord. just like it says on my info sheet, christopher, then surname but likes to be called....MELORD pmsl. see i knew it was £25 well spent.

HELP ! IM SUROUNDED BY CHAVES WITH KNIFES AND A EVERSION TO SLEEP !, well letting others sleep. we are the nite shift and if we have to be awake we are going to make sure as many of you as we can be awake too.!!!!!!!!! So, at regular but not so regular you can predict when, they trundel their little trollies around and compete to see how many times tey can loudly bump into m hotel room door, barge into my room, if the lights off, they turn it on, and if its on they turn it off. regaurdless of if im asleep or not. and the reason ? blood sugar levels, blood pressure or do ou want a tea? in case te sugar and pressure levels have changed in the last 55 mins. ??? some juniour doc seems to have confused me with the man who was in this room they moved to put me in. he was on hourly checks and it seems i am too now. the checks go with the room occupant and NOT the medical requirement of the indervidual !

well i never found out what happened to last nights dinner, but my breakfast seems to have gone the same way. i ordered a sausage bap with brown sauce and was given 1 slice of cold, turning upwards at the at the edges unbuttered toast.with a SOZ, DUN-NO WHAT APPENDED? ARE YOU SURE YOU PRE ORDER A BAP? yes i said very like that half eatten one on the blue plate. pointing at the staff desk, very much like that half eatten bap , pointing at it , under the sing saying, NO FOOD OR DRINK TO BE CONSUMED AT THESE DESKS

Apparantly physo where meant to see me yesterday before they finished for the week at 1500hrs, to give me a .off load bearing front wedge shoe. but apparantly they might not have got the message as they didnt come vback to the hospitalafter their end of the week pub lunch at spoons in the town, so i ordered one on line from amazon. it could be delivered here TODAY or sunday. OR wait for a free one on monday.

WELL ERE I AM ON DAY 2 or is it 3? days of the week and even time seem to have no meaning here, nor doctors who sa, today we are going to do ....and nothing happens. something else that dosent happen is meals. yesterday despite ordering a lunch and dinner. when the 'meals' arrived i had to get out of bed and earch for my food as everyone else got theirs but not me. blatandly iggnored by the catering person. i found m meals in the STAFF fridge and got the impression at least 2 members of staff intended to share them with each other.. toda there was no breakfast for me, pre ordered wheatabix with hot milk. but no wheatabix seemeed to have been delivered so instead of offering me a alternative i was just blanked again, not even offered a cup of tea ! caterer has now buggered off without asking what i wanted for lunch or evening meal.

yesterday 3 different docs said we are going to take you up to the diabet suite but nothing happened ALL DAY. i just laed here watching netflix on my pc.

though last night at 230hrs yet another doc came round, looked at left foot and saidsurgery may not be needed as the hole has ready started to heal over.. but id alrqady been told this shattering news earlyer in the day.

been invited to a party next week end in gorstone sufuck on the sat night . from people at the lowestoft munch, which it seems im a group leader of ? ian get a room deal at prem inn for the fri and sat night for the reduced rate of £35 for BOTH NIGHTS, so may just go up fri after southend hospital and have a weekend away, all depending on being out of here by then. which seems might be the reality of it all.

no flowers and valantine cards being sent by me to anyone this ear, seems wrong to send them to ex. and thats another day i can never enjoy again,
cant enjoy m birthda again as thats the day i got dumped and valantines da is her new anaversar with her new bloke. when we was togther she never seemed bothered by romantic ideas like aniversarise. but guess that another change.she always seemed to avoid romantic ideas i had, and only in our 18 years expressed the term 'love' a nand full of times. but i thought she new how I FELT ABOUT HER ALL THE TIME .

OF GETTING DEEP AND RETROSPECTIVE AGAIN. TIME TO SWITCH ON SHALLOW MODE again.

time to go seek out pain medication , as i seem to have been overlooked for that too this morning .
