OT but read GPs and COVID.
« on: December 30, 2020, 11:21:41 PM »

Hi,

Just in case you didn't know (we didn't).

For 12+ hours, Barbara could swallow a mouthfull of water, and "return it" ten minutes later, converted into paint stripper. Eventually she phoned the Quack.

Once they got it into their minds that it is impossible for Barbara to exit the house (Yes! Still!), they told her to stay put ... and sent an ambulance.

The ambulance crew did the checks, said it was probably food poisoning, and gave her some "horse medicine". She soon felt better.

It's nice to know that there is a "fall back" position.  :cheers

There are lots of "work-arounds" going on. An old friend had a bad fall a while back. ( Golf, its dangerous ! He fell into a drainage ditch).  The GP has been examining the resultant swollen knee using the phone in video mode and has decided that the prescribed anti-inflannatories are not working, a scan is required. Booked for early next week.

Hi Gene,

It's nice to know that GPs are thinking outside the box. The problem is that us peasants don't know about it, so suffer on in silence.
