Kitchen Garden Forum

Hi all,

Not been on here for ages. Sorry about that

Having been told that stents were not the answer to my blocked arteries because of the amount of blockage, I was sent for a chat ( after 6 weeks ) with a surgeon at St. Thomas's in London regarding a bypass operation.

He informed me that I had too many blockages for a bypass to work, so thought that I would end up with increased medication.

Anyway, after another of their meetings, the top man in the stent department at St. Thomas's called me up there for a chat last week.

He reckons that with his expertise, and three of the new super duper dis-solvable stents, I'll be digging into my manure pile in no time

So, I'm off to St. Thomas's tomorrow morning and will have the op on Thursday. Should be home Friday

I must admit that I'm getting a little bit nervous.

Wish me luck

Good Luck PJ! Trust them!

PS Don't touch it (manure) until told though - infection risk is quite high!

And you will be digging on saturday.On the positive side the very best of luck,Im shouting for you.JP.

Best wishes from me PJ,
I'll be crossing all my spades and forks for you

Morning JP, I wish you all the luck possible, and can't wait to see you back on the forum, telling us how well you feel.

Morning all,

Thanks for the good wishes

I'm off to get the train shortly. Good job it wasn't yesterday I suppose.

Considering how little energy I've had these last few months, I've had a pretty good crop from most things.
Mind you, I've had a fair amount of help

Best wishes indeed.

Best wishes from me too. I'll be thinking of you.

Regards, Gerry

wishing you a speedy recovery, hope it all went well.

Hi PJ,

And the same from me and take care

Regards

Arnie

I sincerely hope it's not good luck you need with all that skill to pick and choose from, you have my best wishes for a successful surgery.

This far west much and many of the NHS services are 15 years behind and though we do get a few decent surgeons i'll hazard a guess that ours are 'Journeymen' compared to who's doing the work on you.

Have a manly huggy.

Sending you a big hug ( ) and wish you all the best. Thinking of you lots XX

All the very best, PJ, and looking forward to hearing from you again - all mended!

Best of luck PJ.

Good Luck PJ.
