Well decision made and hospital informed. I have decided not to go ahead with the reversal and hospital informed.
I can't afford to be in hospital for a few days, be unable to lift or drive and maybe have problems with being 'glued to the loo'. I've thought long and hard about this, but with hubbie on palliative chemo, and maybe needing major surgery(s) in the future, I need to be around!
It is likely that the earliest date would be a year since the op anyway. I've read that the longer you wait then more problematic it could be.
Has anyone else made the decision?
