Going back to my sport fascination cricket today had a compacted crowd so it's a step forward.
Not sure how it is for the rest of the test, but yesterday was a govt sanctioned experiment whereby they've all agreed to be tested before and then 5 days after. Was bloody great to see and hear a full crowd though when I managed to watch a bit yesterday. The beer cup snake was bloody huge!
i'm going to Royal Ascot next week - it's one of the test events. We have a PCR test and a lateral test before, then another PCR after. It'll be interesting to see what the atmosphere is like with only 12k people.
Just all huddle together in one location and it will feel legit.

No - I mean there's an add-on to Bypass Paywalls.. Or in the case of the Telegraph just switch Javascript off for that site.
The tweet was also apposite. Its shows the utter irrelevance of the left leaning parties if you have any interest in liberal ideals. That debate will only take place within the Conservative party itself which is deeply ironic.
The fact they're responsible for the illiberal rules makes it remarkable that the debate is still ongoing. No criticism from the left who are just obsessed with fictional oppression.
The people who back the tories got what they wanted. They attacked Labour until they'd broken them down to the point that they're completely ineffectual, Starmer is a sad sack who spends more time agreeing with Boris than arguing with him.
Meanwhile to paraphrase another populist clown, Boris could execute someone in trafalgar square and his popularity would go up. The whole system's fucked

I had the AZ Vaccine a month ago, been suffering dizziness and itchiness since, blood test revealed elevated liver enzymes, spoke to GP today after another blood test and liver enzymes still high. GP checked a blood test from March and liver function fine then, GP has referred me to hospital for further tests. Not sure if coincidence or not, or possible a trigger for something underlying, but I rarely drink.
I think you're referring to B and C. A you can get from contaminated food (I did in Hong Kong and didn't realise I'd had it, other than feeling mightily shit for a week or so with basically the symptoms of a stomach upset). Now have permanently raised LFTs - though it certainly doesn't stop me drinking
Either that or you mean you're a junkie that has lots of unprotected sex but are very careful where you eat
At the risk of offering ad hoc medical advice, the commonest cause in the UK is steato-hepatitis (fatty liver), either alcoholic or non-alcoholic (NASH, i.e. diet related), then viral hepatitides (Hepatitis A is commonly food-borne, not like Hep B or Hep C which might be the lifestyle related stuff you are eluding to), then autoimmune conditions.
Work-up would probably be a bloods panel for hepatitis viruses, epstein barr virus and a few others, auto-immune screen and a few weird and wonderful things like Copper; alongside an ultrasound of the liver.
Deranged liver function tests are reported post AZ vaccine, mostly transient, this would seem like a diagnosis of exclusion once you have ruled out everything else.

Reason for my last blood test in March was suspected Glandular fever (tested negative), just wondering if it could of been due to one of the above virus mentioned ?
My GP did mention fatty liver disease, I forgot to mention I do have cysts on my liver related to my polycystic kidney disease...

Depends on symptoms and stuff at the time.... glandular fever is caused by Epstein Barr virus so most definitely could be related. All kinds of viruses out there that can cause transient derangement in the LFTs like cholestasis or transaminitis.

Generally to have fatty liver you need to have a high BMI etc. Liver dysfunction is certainly related to polycystic kidneys... you can form a new cyst/bleed into one etc, so that's certainly possible.

Happy to DM if this is getting a bit personal
My BMI is 29, my GP didn't seemed concerned. I will wait to speak to the specialist/consultant, GP did say I would get an Ultrasound initially.
If they put concrete, unchangeable plans in place for a date that was specifically designed to be changeable in the event of data changes, then, I mean, that sounds like an issue with thier lack of comprehension, to be frank.
