we all think it will never happen to us so either do not take out insurance or moan about the nhs as we do pay in but get nothing back.
if i am honest this is the way i did think, lucky for me private insurance comes with the job.
last may notice when pushing had on the bike my breathing was becoming a problem,went to the gp and was told it was possibly asthma so for the next 5months was going backwards and forwards with no improvement.
then decided to go private 2nd week in october after 2 scans,i found out last tuesday i have throat cancer with a 5cm mass and today im off to harefield hospital to get the squatters out. where it goes from there is down to the pet scan this friday.
im not knocking the nhs but it sometimes takes longer to get going and my luck is i have private to sort this out as quickly as possible i just wish the nhs was able to operate and respond a lot quicker
