just had my first ride in a ambulance. on Friday the 2nd may I had a Migrane attack bright lights it got really bad my face went numb I felt sick bad headaches this went on longer than usual nearly two hours, so I phoned the doctor who said dial 999 now so I did paramedic took blood pressure which was going too high 220 over 107,

so off to casualty we went the doctors and nurses were good but what I did not like was having to repeat myself too many times when I saw a different person,

I told them I had brain damage and how I got it,

the replies were,

are you sure,

is that confirmed,

I have never heard of that before,

you look well,

you have plenty of colour in your face,

for those of you that do not know I got my brain damage from a vaccination amongst other things,

one doctor said he thinks I should go back to see my neurologist, you know the one what told me he could not do any thing and I would have to sort myself out as he had other patients worse than me, and never told me about headway, I have been telling everybody I have seen that I am getting worse so now I have had a life threatening

high blood pressure attack , so now we will see what the doctors will do now, but all is not lost I am going to see a faith healer I have been waiting for over 6 months it is called ATOS I have read that many sick and dying people have seen them and have been declared fit for work I cant wait for the miracle cure,

love to you all you never know this might be my last post to you all, xxxxxxx john.

Yep, if you went to Atos now they would probably say that BP that high is equivalent to a power lifter - so your fit enough for construction work :-)

Anyway all the best to get back to your new normal

All that and you still have a sense of humour! Hope you feel better soon. I know a couple of people who carry a full what happened to them document which can be handed out to a Doctor so you don't have to plough through the history when you are really rough.

I have a full set of history, symptoms and scores of how I progressed since my injury that I give to anybody working on my case. It saves me trying to remember it and gets round the repetition

I hope they have a sense of humour at ATOS, I don't care anymore.

Are 'Atos' and 'sense of humour' an oxymoron?

Not what you're looking for?
