Hi Everyone

I went for pre op and when went in with the nurse she said "youre down to come in on 25th arent you?" I said "oh right am i?"....Thats fine by me as the quicker the better really....
It all went good blood prressure fine and she got blood fine too...Just have to check my antihistamines with anaesthetist so all going well I'll be there in under a month....

Phew, on my holidays tomorrow, be brown for the op!

    Hi Elaine
    So pleased for you! :-)

    You will be fine and don't forget there are a few old hands on the forum who will be only too pleased to offer moral support and the odd tip to help you out.

    Have a lovely holiday and relax before the big day! :-)

    love

    I hope you have a great holiday, Elaine, and then a great new knee.
    If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

    Well it looks like I'm too late to wish you a good holiday Elaine but don't worry about the op, there are lots of us have come out the other side and have a sense of humour still :D

    Just don't expect to be like anyone else as you are your own person and will recover in your own time. :)
