Had my appointment for my reversal . I saw a new ( to me) consultant. He was lovely . He explained everything to me so as I could understand. Retired nurse or not I am the patient now and we nurses don't know everything.
I got to know the truth of why my cancer was never discovered. I never did have a Colonoscopy, it was just a Sigmoidoscopy. Its no wonder they never found it they never went up far enough.
So before my op I am to have a Colonoscopy just to check the bowel.
I could have the reversal in October but I have a holiday to Turkey ( Istanbul) at the end of November so I wouldn't be healed enough to fly.
So it is to be the 1st week in December. Yippee.
Just in time for me to start the New year fit and well and most importantly WHOLE.
So roll on December.
Hugs to all love Julie XXX
