re: Medical care

my daughter was in Vratza hospital and they were brilliant , casualty a 2 minute wait

re: Medical care

Went to Boro last year and my mate dislocated his shoulder/coller bone on the last day, he spent a long time at the medical centre trying to have it manipulated back into place unfortunatley they made such a mess of him that he ended up having surgery when we got home and is now the proud owner of a couple of steel pins and a plate, so be very carefull. Opt for the local hospital and not the the resort medical centre, ime sure they are much better quallified.

re: Medical care

Doitman - lol. The old ones are the best (that's why we go out with them).
Pete - Is that as serious as it sounds? Glad they sorted you out.
Dave - that was good. Hope your daughter made a fast recovery. The NHS could maybe learn something fro Vratza Hospital
Joe - that was not so good. Sounds a painful experience. I hope it doesn't impede your friends future skiing.

Sorry Pete, maybe not so funny for you at the time, but did make me laugh, as did many of the subsequent comments.

re: Medical care

I did see the funny side of it when I eventually got out - but I have to say I 've had better holidays

re: Medical care

Ditto Don,

This started off as a serious question, but it went quite well didn't it?

Is this a common experience for you Pete, and how serious is it?

Regards,

re: Medical care

It's happened to me just twice in the 36 years that I've been diabetic. It was Pancreatitis which is a swelling of the Pancreas and not very pleasant. If untreated it could be fatal. I was working out the other day just how many jabs I've done now. 4 times a day for 36 years = over 52,000 More perferations than a Tetley Tea Bag

Ouch - there goes another one

re: Medical care

That will be why you know how to handle some of the p****s, that you have come accross on the forum then!!!!

re: Medical care

Bloody hell Pete, I don't know what to say.

If it's any consolation you're not the only one to have the odd jab. I had two on Monday - one for flu and one for swine flu. That's enough for me.

Does it affect your beer capacity?

re: Medical care

Nice one Don,
I was trying to say something like that myself but couldn't find the words.
