Hey, it's me!

20 minutes into tonight's episode of House, the desperate chronically ill guy with the gun is... me! Right down to the post chicken pox/neuralgia and hypersensitive hearing. He needs to go beige.

ETA: 45 minutes in: It's not a tooma. I bet it's preservatives and tomatoes. And mint, oranges, curry, bacon etc etc etc. And let's not forget soup.

Perhaps now would be a time to ask my fellow chronic sickly friends if you've ever had House diagnosis fantasies? A team of dedicated brains and a whiteboard, just for you?

I think medical shows are there to reassure you that really the health system isn't that crap and someone will actually spend time to work out what's wrong with you, CPR will work out ok, nobody much winds up a vegetable, and whatever's wrong can be (usually) fixed.

Now, to sit down and watch tonight's episode :)

I used the word "fantasy" advisedly.
