My story, and I can only emphasise what he says in the video. If it ain't normal, get it checked out.

Last November had my annual COPD lung scan in a mobile scanner parked up at Lidls. A couple days later , receive a phone call, we want to another scan. Quickly followed by an an appointment with a lung specialist. During the course of the questions and answers, he asked if I had any other medical problems. Yes, I think I have irritable bowel syndrome. What makes you think that? My pooh isnt quite the same. His ears prick up at this.
Get home and within a couple of hours a knock on the door. The full package, instructions, potion to mix up and take 24 hours befoe a colonoscopy.
Bottom line. Two months to the day from Lidl car park I am told I have inoperable, incurable bowel and lung cancer. My general health would not tolerate surgery, nor any aggressive interventions. Palliative care only.

If you are fit and seemingly healthy, and something just ain't right. Get to a doctor

Thank you for sharing and raising awareness, which may very well help someone else.

I hope you have lots of love and support around you, and wish you the best with plenty of good days to enjoy - hopefully City will help with that too!

I see our laws are not suitable for industrial size tipping - well there’s a surprise . I’ve said it before re vape shops , barbers , convenience stores . The loopholes are being spotted funded and exploited by well organised ‘gangs’ . We are way too slow to adapt .

How about a simple law that stops explotation of unintended loopholes? Job done.
I don't think it's that we're too slow, it's more that we are too soft, too stupid, allow ourselves to be taken for mugs, too wrapped up in complexity, etc.
