  • Nic, I’m sure you’ll be ok, remember the surgeons do the operation all the time, if they thought they couldn’t do it it wouldn’t be happening. My husband had no trouble through the operation everything went well and was out on day 7, a couple of up and dawn months but nothing too bad, he was 79 at the time of the op. It was me who did the worrying not him and it’s still like that now. All the best to you Nic xxx

    The waiting and buildup to the operation is so frightening. You have done everything you can to prepare physically and mentally but it’s absolutely terrifying!

    Hopefully all the positive stories on this group are a comfort and in a couple of days you will be able to share another one! 

    The medical team do this everyday and will look after you. 
    Good luck

    You are so true in what you say , but it doesn't stop my mind working over time 

    And getting worse each day operation  gets closer.  My head pounding  mot going  away  with paracetamol  might have to speak to someone  xx

    That is not good.  It’s more difficult to get advice over the weekend but it might be worth speaking to the CNS on Monday or phone the Macmillan Help Line. It’s open from 8.00 a.m. to8.00 p.m seven days a week.
