Finished CT,MRI. and Pet Scans. I've been referred to the Beatson at Gartnavel from Hairmyres.My new Consultant's name is Michael Duff and when I inquired as t why this was taking place I was told it was bacause he has more experience in these more Complex surgery procrdures. I can tell you I wasn't overboard with excitement when I heard that.Still just another slight hiccup I'll need to deal with.

That was the bad news, the good news is I'm going to marry Deirdre, my partner of 17 years; nothing too lavish maybe a guest list of about 30-40 max. We're hoping to do it before surgery whilst I'm still a relatively whole human being.

Love and God bless all,

Jim

Hi Jim, you'll find all the top docs at the Beatson, try to be reassured about that.

Congratulations on your forthcoming wedding. I married my partner of 16 and a half years in Nov 2009. Still going strong lol.

Best wishes for your surgery.

p.s. I live in Hamilton, so guess you're not too far away if you attend Hairmyres. I had my treatment at Wishaw General though x
