Medical

What a week its been. It all started on Saturday morning with some of the worst pain I have ever had the misfortune of experiencing. I’m talking about proper belly holding agony lying in the foetal position, screaming for mercy…. You know that kind of pain! This went on until Wednesday which was fortunate as I had a blood test on Thursday and wasn’t really looking forward to leaving the house in the state I was in and to be honest the way that I looked. If you can imagine the weakest palest most pathetic creature you have ever seen, I was close oh so very close to that!

Anyway moving on I received a letter from the benefits office in the week which caused me to almost swallow a lung as I got so nervous! don’t ask me why as I know im ill but still the thought of a stranger who’s job is it to sort out the benefit cheats from the actually ill individuals that need to claim benefits to live really scared me. In the information pack was a itinerary explaining that the day holds and how long I can expect to be there for, it stated that I will be in the building or around two hours. I’m not sure I stay up for two hours, my maximum time that I can concentrate for is around the forty five minute mark so we shall see how that goes. After thinking it through with my lovely and beautiful girlfriend Lauren, she sat me down and talked me through it all and asked me some questions like:-

“are you ill?”

“what do you do with your days?”

“why cant you work?”

I must say it was pretty intense stuff but I answered all these questions to the best of my ability and as I predicted by the end I became so sleepy and confused that we had to stop. Role on the 28th of august, and hopefully I will be able to eat food and buy my prescriptions at the same time which will be most splendid!

Dave.
