Pre Op went well, I looks like they will give me a general even with my dicky heart. I was not looking forward to it as an Epidural. I am rather surprised though that they did not give me a stress test on a bike though.
Finally had some sense from the consultants secretary today.
The anaesthetist was happy with my Echocardiogram and is prepared for me to have a general anaesthetic. This I am most surprised at as previously I failed miserably at a stress test for my hernia operation. That with a reinforcing pig skin was to be around an 8 to 10 hour operation though. This will be at a maximum one and a half hours. I certainly do not think I have actually improved as I get very breathless on exertion. Looking for a date in May, on a Tuesday which is when this particular consultant operates. April was full.
Cheers Guy, still no date and in a lot of pain. Codeine and Ibuprofen are hardly touching the pain now. Trying to get in contact with the Urologists secretary but no luck. I would pay private if needs be to speed things up. I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy!!!
