    Careful! You'll get yourself branded a 'bedwetter'.

      Get well soon mate.

      The neat dettol trick really works.

        I got tested so so many things (but probably not Pleurisy) and they didn't find out what was wrong. Even these days I can feel my chest give me light pains now and again, and my breathing is erratic at times.

        How did they test and identify for Pleurisy?
        I used to get something similar to that as a kid. After I went swimming my chest would hurt and my eyes would go red, so perhaps it was allergy related. I don't get it any more though.

          A tip if you are stuck in bed - get a large (empty ) coffee jar and keep it next to the bed. If you need a piss and you are having trouble moving you can use it.
          Before the rest of you wade in - this does work.

            What do you call large? A pint (474ml) is a minimum, which is a lot of coffee. Nothing worse than having to stop mid-flow and a brimming receptacle. A recipe for disaster. I would like to see a woman manage it. It must at least involve getting on to your knees?

              There's web sites for people like you.

                  A hose extension would allow laying down weeing into a coffee jar placed under the bed.

                    I had Pleurisy when I was 5.

































                    My mum felt sorry for me and let me open my Christmas present early.



                    F**k yeah... I liked having Pleurisy.
                    Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

                      I bet it does it work for a bloke. But surely as a lass you're going to struggle to squat over a coffee jar from a prone position.
