That's a pity, they give a pretty insane workout with no impact and provided you pay a little attention to form you wont get a sore back. I got a second hand concept2 air resistance one cos they're indestructible and basically the industry standard

the only good rowing machines are the ones with water in them, so you can see it sloshing around as you row

Hope she went along and asked lots of questions. The reports tend to be pretty useless on their own unless there's something major and obvious.

She used the same company her boyfriend's parents have used in the past and they have picked up stuff which wasn't obvious before. I got her to check she can get flood insurance for the home and contents and she can. Today's interest rate increase shouldn't affect her mortgage approval so the next hurdle is the lender's valuation.

Well I found out the hard way today that Queensland Health like to triage people with eye injuries of lower importance than a crackhead with a 'sore leg' trying to get drugs. Almost 7 hours waiting in the ED today. Great fun.

Nsw health is similar and a person vomiting blood is a low rung for being dealt with in any manner till the floor is mostly clear and they've pulled the nurse out of maternity to help

Yeah the guy with the eye injury waited 8! HA!

Na After waiting all that time I flagged down a nurse and made it quite clear I was not happy at all . Stayed calm and mentioned that in all this time I've sat quiet, even helping old nannas get in out out of wheelchairs to go to the toilet etc. Actively HELPING the staff.

Yeah 2 minutes later I was greeted by an ophthalmologist and a bunch of tests done to make sure I didn't have any rusty metal still in my eye socket. Man there is one test that would freak anyone with needle phobias. It's a pressure test of your eyeball with a little needle looking thing that jabs your eyeball. This fucken contraption:


The needle comes out of the green halo that you are meant to look directly at! Now my damaged eye had local anesthetic so didn't feel a thing but was quite anxious about the good eye.

Also they put some dye in my eye for another test which turned it blood orange which was kicking rad to send to my boss to prove I was actually in a state of bother.:
:nms: https://i.imgur.com/Ivb5T3W.png :nms: raw linking for those that might not want to see an eye weeping orange dye

The interesting part of that dye was it was seeping through my sinus and my left nostril was discharging a runny orangey yellow snot lol.

I recently copped a volley spike to the eye whose diagnostic tests discovered a metal shard in my eye that had to be dug out with a needle along with a little ring of rust

Both my procedures had students, or inexperienced doctors involved in treatment, not a complaint .I was attended to promptly and with a level of urgency that felt appropriate

The dilating drops are not loving around

I've been lucky the last few years when I've had to use the ED. I've been seen quickly even if it's taken a while for them to run all the tests and find a bed. That said, I know how to escalate care to the REACH team and wouldn't hesitate to do so if I thought I'd been wrongly triaged.

The only time I had to go to emergency I had a peritonsillar abscess, the very matter-of-fact nurse at the desk was asking me questions, when I answered that I was having trouble swallowing things moved very fast

Definitely not loving around given how rapid and aggressive testicular cancer can be but hoping it's nothing worth worrying about. Hopefully can get some blood work done and quickly verify
