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.
