Duhhh

Heh an interesting fact.I just read the blog again which was really nice.Lots of great memories.But one thing that I do remember is that in our morning monitoring of BP pulse saturation tc, many/all of us were hypertensive. Our blood pressure was high.Sats were good, lower than normal because of altitude, but ok.But our blood pressures, measured on my aneroid sphygmomanometer, were high.DuhhhhhThe sphygmomanometer was calibrated for sea level.LoveStephen

Nearly 5 years since Everest!

As predicted my blog faded away after the excitement of our Everest Marathon Challenge for the Cystic Fibrosis trust. Over that year we made over £110,000 for CFT and research has made some massive progress.

Unfortunately a "cure" is not here yet so we're at it again with:
"A Revolutionary Year for Cystic Fibrosis"

More later if I keep going.

Anyway I thought I would spruce up the blog, possibly to use with my twitter account to link on longer issues.

There is indeed an arrogance in the thought that anyone may be interested. Sorry!

But sharing of possible solutions to NHS issues seems absolutely essential.

We're doing great stuff but often others, with the same challenges don't know and they may have stuff that we don't know.

So lets see if I keep going and if anyone else wants to join in.

Love
Stephen
