I've been to the doctors today to get a check up following the last two weeks. There was good news, and there was bad news.
The good news is that I seem to be through the worst of it. The doctor is pleased with my blood pressure and my pulse - both are as they should be. I have passed through the "dangerzone" of a repeat attack that could have happened over the first 10 days too.
The bad news is the cost of the monthly medication I am prescribed. £30 each and every month from now until the year dot. Apparently, if I was an unemployed layabout who had never paid taxes, I could have been given it all for free, but as I paid my taxes, and worked myself ill I have to now pay for the medicines I need to take to keep me alive.
Fair? Absolutely not, but then this is the New Britain and those that work hard don't get anything as a reward, because it all gets given to the loafers.
