Definitely go see someone. I had a cold a few years ago (pre COVID times) and even though it settled within a few days I had a persistent cough for weeks, and occasionally became wheezy with it. Struggled to sleep etc.
Ended up seeing a respiratory consultant colleague who prescribed me an inhaled steroid and it settled completely within days (I’m not asthmatic and never have been, but he said you can get a persistent cough which sort of self fuels - as the cough causes irritation - which causes more coughing - vicious circle)
Absolutely true. In the same way that “medical” cardiac arrest isn’t a diagnosis. They’re merely symptoms of underlying disease processes as you say, and those disease processes have very different treatments and a very different prognosis (eg. VF arrest secondary to arrhythmogenic causes in a 25 yr old will be different to VF secondary to a STEMI in an 80 yr old, and both are different to PEA secondary to septic shock, etc etc)
I do worry that “lumping” cardiac arrests together is too over simplistic and will lead to some potential treatments being discarded as ineffective, when in reality they may have a role for a specific subset of patients. (We just need to find them ! #moreresearchneeded)
Excited to be in Orlando for the #SCCM2025 conference. First impressions are superb - helped by absolutely no queue at the border. Plane to Uber in 14 minutes !!!

So there’s damaged luggage. And then there’s *damaged luggage*. This seemingly is the latter. No idea what the airline or handling company did to this bag !! (It’s my dad’s - happily at the end of his holiday). @easyJet - any clue ??
@SimonCalder Any thoughts on how to get this sorted ? Should I just get him to claim on his travel insurance ? @easyJet apparently don’t allow claims for the destroyed contents !!! Only the bag ??
