Pants

Good word, I'm sure you all agree.
Certainly a rational response to my predicament. Also relevant to the underwear shot of yours truly which I hope to attach to this posting. Come on, this is going on the Internet, porn had to raise its ugly head (well maybe I haven't gone quite that far)
My attitude to underwear has been historically careless. Buy cheap and wear to destruction. My diagnosis however comes at a high point of my underwear ownership.
ODDBALLS. Comfortable, secure and above all decent. Ideal for visits to medical facilities where clever women and men may want to check for whatever rubbish we find on Wednesday's investigations.
They also send 10% of their purchase price to fight testicular cancer. Follow them on Twitter to find countless pictures of fit young men and women (the ladies items are cut differently, I can't vouch for comfort but they do look attractive).
They also have a Movember pair. Please give generously to this movement. Thousands of men are suffering the embarrassment of dodgy moustaches during November. If we pay generously they will at least shave them before Christmas. The money they are raising is generally for Men's health and more specifically to research Prostate cancer. This took of my father, his best friend and his younger brother. Who knows it may be the wee shite at the base of my problem.
An international Men's day is clearly daft, but a bit of funding and publicity to encourage us to look after our health is really important.

Quiet few days on the medical front. A new anti eleptic drug started this morning. Time will tell how this reacts with my steroids and my antacids, both on reducing doses, and with the beer. I am still self medicating with carefully judged doses of Britains finest IPAs. You know it makes sense although when I mentioned it to my GP yesterday I am pretty sure a vision of me passing out nightly with a couple of gallons inside we flickered across here minds eye. No such luck.

I am going to spend more time than any of us would like in the company of junior doctors over the next month or 2. They badly need our support in their negotiations with the government. The Tory campaign against the NHS is founded on lies and greed and thickly layered with incompetence and dishonesty. Let's give the doctors all our support. Above all DON'T VOTE TORY.
Did I mention my new dentist?
A young woman in St Andrews. She fitted 3 x-Ray's, 2 fillings and a good clean into a half hour appointment on Tuesday. She didn't even seem shaken when I asked her advice on combining dental treatment with tumour ownership.
I've never had a lady dentist before but she seems great and if you have to have someone leaning over you closely soft skin and fair hair are much more pleasant than stubble
