On the Blue Side


You may have noticed this blog has been a little quiet for the last couple of weeks.  I’d been taking time to focus on PhD work for a week or so and then the events dealt with in this entry happened – hence my absence. 

I’d been in pain for hours, unable to stay in one position for more than a minute.  I knew something was wrong.  The pain was between my chest and my abdomen on the right side.  It was second worst pain I had ever been in, rating higher than a lot of more serious injuries.  I checked my symptoms on the NHS 111 App which confirmed my suspicions – I needed to get myself to the hospital.
