Ouch !

 


The Author after his operation ! (or man with a case of 'man flu' ),. So I've been for my operation to have my gall bladder remove (having been bothered by gall stones the last couple of years) , it was a day op at my local hospital (if there wasn't a hill and trees in the way I could see it) - everything went smoothly , there at 7.30am , op at 9.00 (first up )  key hole surgery and home for 4pm , due to the anasthetic I was sick on any food taken and extremely tired - but up at 6am this morning "up and not crying" as the Norwegians say , had my breakfast and going to have a little walk - take it easy but don't be a couch potato was the message I was given . So a bit sore but no pain , I must once more praise the NHS, everything went smoothly , highly proffessional and very careing - we in the UK are VERY lucky in having this service even with all it's problem . Back to wargaming matters soon .

  3. Aha! I know your pain. When I had the first 'attack' I had no idea what was happening. My wife's friend who had gallstones said it was worse than child birth and had to go to A&E whereas I kept a stiff upper lip (that's my story anyway). Soreness after the op wasn't too bad either.

  4. Pleased it all went well and you're back on the mend. As for the NHS, any treatment is usually excellent, it's getting it where the service is less than what would be desired.
