Hi everyone this is not an April fool joke seriously on Valentines day I was rushed into Hospital with a Gall Bladder infection after being on 2 very strong different Antibiotics and a saline drip I was allowed home the next day after about 10 days I developed what I call an irritating cough that only happens when I talk it is not continuous I phoned the Doctors this morning and as your not allowed to go to the surgery I was told the Doctor would ring me after about half an hour lucky for me it was my own Doctor that phoned he asked me to do a test of holding my breath for as long as I could and count the seconds I got up to 27 he said that was good as I do have Asthma people with no underlying problems should be able to count over 30 seconds I also had last week an Xray result of my chest and that was clear he said it was not my Asthma and that I had a good peak flow of my lungs he does think I have one of the strains of the Corona Virus which is the mild one so now I am on antibiotics and steroids for a week to see how I progress in isolation and I am hoping my hubby Trevor does not get it bad as he suffers with COPD and Asbestosis.I asked if I could have a test he said no only if your admitted to Hospital those are the ones that get tested he also said not even the Doctors or Nurses have had a test which is dreadful as they are the ones on the front line we live in North Wales...
