Not Again

Look at it this way what ever it is good or bad there is little or nothing you can do to alter the situation is there. So go for your tests and lets all hope you are given the thumbs up .Your Mrs doesnt need to be put through the ringer and certainly your 12 year old doesnt deserve that kind of weight on her shoulders so front it on your own untill you know one way or the other, your a whinging c**t anyway probably man flu.All the best anyway

Been through all that Mush , and its a bit frightening ( I was shiting myself ) while waiting for news I made my best mate listen to all my fears and worries , it must have did his head in , but he listened and nodded in all the right places that's what best mates are for and it spared the family knowing I,m a wimp and worrying about me , you will be Ok Im sure , doctoes love private patients its kerching for them with as many tests as they can think of , ATB

Stick with it Mush , no point in getting them all upset it will probably be nothing to worry about . As you say the first mention of the c word turns you to jelly ,it's the only word that sticks in your head every thing else gets lost .good luck with it ..

Likely nothing much but, smokers continue reading

 

 

I don't know the history or your age but if they mentioned COPD then you are or where a smoker so it’s really simple. Stop smoking. then stop again and again and keep stopping until you’re a non-smoker, then if its COPD

it'll stop deteriorating and your lung function will improve,

At the same time your reflux will improve and thereby reducing chronic cough syndrome 2nd to reflux if that is the cause

, mild heart failure is treatable, TB is treatable, lung cancer isn't that common and you can reduce your risk considerable by guess what????????????????????????Stopping smoking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fecking simple really if you care about your family stop smoking!

 

 

If you have stopped then on their behalf good on ya!

Stopped smoking, still have the odd joint on a weekend mind.

 

I'm under no illusions whatever the issue is its more than likely related to smoking and by proxy my own fault

It all depends on your character as to whether you need to tell your immideate family ... I can cope with things on my own and no matter how stressed or worried I am my family would never know so I wouldn't tell them anything until I knew the facts BUT if your the type of person that is going to show stress by being snappy with your family or depressed around them then clearly you need to tell them what's going on ... If it's bad news will you be having an auction of your hunting kit ... Oh and will it be free p&p ........
