Not had the procedure myself but friends who have all report feeling hugely better after it is done - better than they have in quite a few years in fact.

a chap down the pond had one earlier this year ,he (in his 60's) recovered very fast and now feels better than he has for a decade ,a speedy recovery and return to the banks to you Alan

Believe NOTHING anyones says or writes unless you witness it yourself and even then your eyes can deceive you

None of this "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" crap it just means i have at least two enemies!

 

There is only one opinion i listen to ,its mine and its ALWAYS right even when its wrong

 

Its far easier to curse the darkness than light one candle

Grangers law : anything i say will  turn out the opposite or not happen at all!

Well, this time last week I was feeling very rough, less than 24 hours after the start of what transpired to be 7 hours' surgery and 5 hour's on ventilation afterwards.

 

Today I got myself out of bed (it hurt) without help. Showered myself, dressed, had lunch and am waiting for the pharmacist before being allowed home. I climbed two flights of stairs without having to pause. A first for over two years.

 

Thanks to all those on AN for their support and encouragement - especially Elton, the Vail's, Rob Ward, Rob Stubbs (and Imogen!) and Adam Humphries. Thanks to you all for making the site what it is.... A brilliant resource.

 

Just in case you missed the point, I'm home today!

Glad to hear that you are on the mend Alan.

The problem isn't what people don't know, it's what they know that just ain't so.
