What's happening?
Sorry I haven't replied in a while, I've been feeling a bit groggy! I'm recovering back at my grandmothers house now, slowly making improvements day by day. I'm eating relatively normally now, no longer throwing up after any food!
I went to the doctors yesterday and while there I felt a bit funny so they took my blood pressure and it was 60/30, the nurse panicked as she couldn't understand how I was still conscious! All was ok in the end.
The weirdest thing is most of the pain I am getting is not in my chest, it is in my back, shoulders and arms, apparently it's normal though as the body has trouble pinpointing internal pains or something.

Cotswolds you say... maybe a run up the A46 or Fosse Way is in order when you're feeling more yourself? Something to look forward to, eh?
Yes indeed, there are some lovely roads around here, just the drive into Chedworth is nice enough I have until the end of October (ish) to wait until I am allowed behind the wheel again. I am taking advantage of the time off the road to replace all the rubber parts in the suspension and fir the front mount intercooler I have been meaning to for ages, not myself of course

Great to hear your still going in the right direction, and planning to use your time wisely (on your car).

hey dude , how you getting on ?
Not too bad thanks, had a bit of a hiccup the other day as I coughed quite hard (a sip of apple juice went down the wrong way) and my scar ripped a little, but it soon scabbed over and now the scar is pretty much scab free, just freshly joined skin.Chest pains are getting worse, it's always on my right hand side which is weird, feels like constant muscle cramps or a rib slightly out of place or something. It's bearable though!
I'm fairly mobile now, moving around pretty normally, just not able to do anything strenuous. The docs said minimum of 4 weeks before i could start driving again, it will e 4 weeks on Thursday so I think at the weekend I will give it a try to see if I can turn the wheel and check blind spots etc without getting any pain.
Getting pretty bored being stuck in all the time though!
