Oops!
A good job I didn't have it. The Doctor is baffled by my symptoms. I still have the pain but not as bad. I think I may know now what it could be.
I use a cheap blender that I bought from Argos to mix the two shakes I have everyday, and I noticed just over a week ago that it wasn't mixing very well and was noisier than normal. This morning after getting back from the Doctors, I switched the mixer on and checked that the blades were working properly, they seemed to be rotating ok, but to my horror! I noticed that there was an oily black fluid leaking from above the blades. I turned it off and put some of this oily substance on my finger, it smelt of grinded metal, so I must have been contaminating my shakes for over a week!
