must have been a virus Jim , that is what my doctor says when he doesn't have a clue , Sepsis is a killer , glad to see you back
Thanks chaps for your kind words.Rob I thought they did'nt have a clue and I made the mistake of telling the doctor so,was'nt treated to good after that.I told them when i went in that i needed a couple of units of blood,they were reluctant todo this and my hemoglobin level dropped right down which made me very susceptible to infections.When the head cardio doctor came around after i had been on antibiotics for 4 days I was feeling really ill,I said to him if I had've been transfused last wednesday instead of sitting around all day I would be at home now all this could have been avoided,he was not to pleased.I said to his understudy I think I upset your boss,he would'nt get upset over that thats nothing to what we have to put up with,he didnt shake hands with me on his next bedside call.I got the 2 units of blood the next day when my hemoglobin was less than half what a mans should be.I used to keep my levels up by injecting myself but the injections had to stop when being treated for the other so regular transfusion is the only way to keep the level up.So the moral of the story is never tell a doctor what you think.
Regards.

Jim that sounds like that song , never smile at a crocodile. I was in hospital a few years ago and they couldn’t find what was wrong thought I had some rare tropical disease , kept telling them that was crap. After seeing one of the 6 doctors I asked him if it could be physcological as was going through a bad time just then , it was a stomach complaint which had me doubled up. They finally put it down to diviticulitis as couldn’t find anything else. The doctor I asked about being a head bangers problem , gave me a phone number to ring if I was worried about their diagnosis. On getting home after a week I phoned the number expecting to get some answers to some questions I had. I got some female and as soon as I started asking questions she wanted to know if I had a fire arm in. The house , think it was a samaritans number, so just put the phone down. JS

If you go on the news on the net, yesterday was a piece on a well known tv commentator a bloke called Koshi. He apparently In Conjunction with a female who I assume is a chemist, has come up with a formula to enhance a males erection problems and being a well known personality was advertising it as personally tried and tested and is supposed to be 184 percent ahead of its nearest competitors in the field including Viagra. Of course the others are shouting foul as he shouldn’t be allowed to advertise. So if ever the waiter comes to your table to take your order in a restraunt and Koshi is there just say I’ll have what he’s having. JS
Chaps we are well off thread now - the Thread subject is Liverpool Water Front - if you want to discuss health issues there is the Health Matters Sub Forum in the General Interest Forum - please could any further posts on this thread relate to the Liverpool Water Front - thank you.
I was often at the waterfront and even living here there is always something going on there just sitting on any bench you will strike up a conversation with people from all over the world and they hang on every word of scouse language we take our heritage very serious but in a funny way come and visit us its a 24/7 city and all are welcome? jp
I seem to remember either a film or a radio series called “ I cover the waterfront” , anything to do with Liverpool ?

Well said Lewis.
I was in Liverpool earlier in September visiting my "Scouse family". I was an Engineer with Bank Line (originally Anglo-Indian who was raised in Australia). I met my future wife in Liverpool in 1978 (we were berthed at Gladstone Dock) and a ready made family of one Liverpudlian and two Evertonians. We moved to Australia in 1984 but unfortunately my wife passed away in 1988, leaving a 4 yr old Aussie daughter (claimed by the LFC). That one is now 34 yrs old in Australia. I get back to Liverpool nearly every year as one son and daughter are back there.
Always get down to the Pier Head and if lucky experience the "spray off the Mersey"...drizzle. Its a special place with special people....Scousers..salt of the earth.
By the way Scouse definitely beats Lancashire hot pot and Welsh cawl!!!
