This is a huge hospital St Thomas's - so I hope the pizza delivery bod doesn't get lost on the way -

While patient hospital food has remained underwhelming, the visitor food here has improved. There is a Tim Hortons in both the hospitals that we are frequenting of late. It’s a big doughnut chain that branched into the soup & sandwiches lunch crowd and just-recently added pizza.
Starting this Satyrday morning on an upbeat note:
Well, that didn't work out well. It was a U-Tube of "Hallelujah" played on bamboo flutes, but shows up here as a private video.

Ummmmm, where is the music??
How about we start this morning on an upbeat note by hugging the person next to you? Air hugs to you @Gypsy Nirvana until you can find a pretty nurse.

So, they call you again and give you… porridge? someone mistook “cardiac arrest” for “arrest that cardiac”! With that diet in St Thomas, let's see if those meat feast pizzas make their way intact, don't let the deliver guy go until you check up the contents. Keep a hidden slice to bribe the surgeon.

A hearty amen to that
Well - what a fiasco - in the end - because this delivery guy would probably have known his way around the Great Pyramid of Giza - better than St Thomas's hospital - I had to walk all the way to the main entrance from Stephen Ward - which is a very long way - after realising that he didn't speak English - from the 3 telephone calls he made to me - and I couldn't understand a word - and finally when I got the pizza back to my bed - it was stone cold - but I was so calorie deficient - I ate 4 slices in quick succession - so reviving myself -
I would like to think the fact that they held off on admitting you until they can get more opinions on this "something "Funny"", means that they know enough already to know it's safe to make you wait, rather then admit you anyway, so that if "something "Funny"" turns out to be "something serious" you would already be in the best place to deal with it whatever it is. Unfortunately there are too many other things that get in the way of smart healthcare like worrries about liability and such. Hopefully it does turn out to just be "something "Funny" although in my experience there isn't much to laugh about when it involves heart health.

Damn weeds.....
Its opens many doors
That reminded me about the time that I attempted to get a pizza delivered to the old Riviera Hotel in Vegas . . . I was told the next day that my rant to hotel management was epic - but ultimately unsuccessful.
I blame it on the birds!
It's like a "Get out of jail free" card.Its opens many doors
Dont need to a explain it to a man who takes his badge seriously
Yes - had this Chinese lady cardiologist finally explain to me what the cock-up was in my case - and it boils down to the pacemaker experts not checking the chest x-ray taken on the day of my last release (last Sunday) - if they had checked it properly - they would have noticed that a wire was not in the place that it should have been - and fixed it there on the spot - instead of letting me go home under the false assumption - that everything was alright - when it wasn't - and the new whizz-bang-wizard of a new gizmo/gadget picking it up and forwarding the imminent problem details - to those that should have known about it already - if they had only taken the time to properly study the x-ray in the first place -
You should put our group on your portal so we could advise accordingly.
Ha ha ha
. That is soooo fucked up, 
In ohio we can get pizza delivered to a state prison but you cant get one delivered to a hospital bed. Morning Big and all!
I was wondering if you being prone to migraines has anything to do with the elevation where you live.
Lets also consult on Gypsy's chart and see if we can both figure it out.
Hopefully they will have a lessons learned with the hospital staff that should have caught this. The hospital went into my wrong kidney once even after they had 10 people sign off on the left kidney even the doc signing my left side arm with his initials, they still went into the right side. The swept it under the carpet and hid all their mistakes. I was pretty pissed as it takes a really long time to recover from it and it was not fun. I’m sorry they made this mistake and hope they at least learn from it for the next guy…
