I'm sharing my experience navigating the NHS, dealing with "drop attacks" (literally falling over in the street), and why I'm having to do my own research and challenge the GP's treatment plan.I also give a quick update on my ongoing legal battle with the NCPS (National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society). For those asking, I am taking them to small claims court over a failure to fully disclose my data under a Subject Access Request (SAR), and I'm just waiting on a court date.Plus, I’m reacting to the shocking news surrounding the murder of Ann Widdecombe, the online fallout, the state of free speech, and what's currently kicking off on my Facebook page with people threatening to denounce me just for knowing what a woman is!Grab a cuppa (or a cup of soup in a Miss Piggy mug) and join the catch-up.Timestamps:00:00 - Checking the tech & catching up05:30 - Pushback on Facebook & NCPS standing down on complaints09:15 - My health update: Severe B12 deficiency & drop attacks17:00 - Fighting the GP for B12 injections vs. tablets24:30 - ECG results & T-waves28:40 - The murder of Ann Widdecombe & free speech online35:00 - Thoughts on Reform, Restore, and Nigel Farage40:00 - NCPS Small Claims Court update42:00 - My son's beautiful wedding!If you enjoyed the stream, please like, subscribe, and drop a comment below.
