A Good Pair Of Lungs

I'd quite like a pair of them.

Sleeping last night wasn't a bundle of laughs.  Almost asleep and then <cough><cough><cough>, and so it went on.  When my alarm went off at 6, I knew I would have to go to the doctor.

So off we went.  They took blood, did an ECG and sent me for this x-ray.

First question I was asked "Do you smoke?"  Apparently it's blimmen obvious that I did*, but I can't see it myself.

Anyway, I have medicine to take to stop the night coughing  and I've to go back on Friday for another appointment.

Meanwhile the cough-a-thon continues.

*I'm nearly 5 years smoke free.  Stopped the day I arrived in Germany and have never had one since.  And given the problems I'm having, I can only imagine how much worse it would have been if I had continued to smoke.
