I shrugged off the lockdown to take myself to the hospital for a scan today. I’ve had a lingering cough and shortness of breath for about two months. I thought I was getting a CT scan after an X-ray proved inconclusive. I did get that scan. But first they stuck a rather large needle into my right lung and drained off half a litre of brown fluid.
Wow. Shocking and amazing to this non-medical person. The interwebs suggest that half a litre of fluid is about 1/12 of your lung capacity. Amazing that your body wasn't working harder to cough it up. Also how ineffective coughing is, I suppose.
Good. God. Whoa!
Looks like flat beer. Pretty shocking but glad you're feeling better.
Fuck moi! Glad they got that shit out of you! Hope you feel better soon.
Kinda gross really. And kinda scary. Better out than in.
I assume this will now go on Ebay alongside Elvis' saliva. Lucrative business.
Well that's great but have they or you fixed whatever caused the leak in the first place?
Shit a brick! Thats a lot of juice. Hope they get to the bottom of it though... No more bucket bongs JB 😁

JHC John! Did the doc put you also on dehydration medication (Piss pills)?
Bloody hell JB, that's a bit full on! How are you feeling post fluid drainage? 😲
