Sodium Phosphate in frozen turkey.
Have you noticed that sodium phosphate is injected into frozen turkeys? (Maybe not all, but the one I bought did.) It preserves the meat, makes it retain water soo you don't have to baste it, makes the turkey look better, and saves the store money. There should be a warning label on the package, just

When to use GTN spray?
Hi all. I’m struggling today and just wanted some advice. I’m on Nicorandil and Monomil at the moment and also have a gtn spray but I’m really not sure when to use it. I feel like I’ve had a fat cat strapped on my chest all day and also breathlessness- this is nothing new but can be varying degrees

Sudden sharp pain in chest
Yesterday as we were lying in bed the wife turned to me and suddenly experienced a 10 out of 10 pain in her chest under her left breast. The pain remained at that level so I dialled 999 and the paramedics attended. The pain subsided to a dull ache whilst they were at home but as the pain was still present
