bunkrest , possibly because we might work for the same outfit.

Personally I ( and I think many others here) would see to it that

(a) The automatics were taking me where I want to go.

(b) The victim in the other seat was tended to.

(c) Declare an emergency, take advice from the medics by satphone and and consider landing at somewhere suitable ASAP.

(d) Ask for Cabin Crew to look for a Company pilot, or help with books, refreshment, empty water bottles , perhaps checklist reading ( and to keep an eye on my physical condition ).

(e) Land the aircraft.

Call me old fashioned but what I'm not going to do is invite a PPL/ Flight simmer or even an ATCer ( sorry guys) onto the Flight Deck and then open another whole whole can of worms over CRM/Tech/ATC knowledge......
