That at least is understandable, as it's a respiratory condition.
Given I've had an 'episode' in the past year where the doctor put me on the powerful medication rather than the standard stuff when I get ill I'm guessing that, despite not being hospitalised, it pushed me up the list. The numbers I put out on my breathing test kit were under half the normal score, so I wasn't well.
Basically I'd raced on the Friday at Manchester, TT'd Saturday in Leicestershire (down the A46 in cold damp conditions), tried to train at Manchester on Sunday evening, then keeled over and it turned out I'd got a lung infection following a heavy cold a couple of weeks before.
The doctor, who's usually polite and nice, responded to me when I said I'd pop down to the pharmacy to collect the meds with "Can you just behave for once. Which bit of 'do not leave your house' don't you understand? Get someone else to fetch your medication or you're the dimwit* I think you are."
* Note: I
think she used the f word instead of dim, but I was probably struggling to breathe at the time.
