Using the posh loos on the aeroplane eh? I knew there had to be some benefit to all this for you.  In all seriousness though - all best wishes for the procedure on Monday, and the following prognosis. Everything crossed for a positive outcome. Dx |

Okay I'm back home.
First thank you for all the good luck wishes. I can now tell you I was trusing more in Great Expertise than good luck. :-) Not sure if I've said this before but Frimley Park Urology Dept is highly rated and for sure the best in this area.
When I went for the pre OP the nurse asked "What treatment are you going for? Botox"?
"What"? I replied. " It's supposed to be a Cyscoscopy and may be a biopsy" I siad. "You can't get Botox on the NHS can you"? I asked,
It seems it is a treatment for some Bladder conditions.
So I put that in the memory thinking make sure I don't get that teatment.
So now for todays events.
Woke at 6.05 had a quick shower, shave and sample.
Arrived about 5 minutes late at the hospital but that was no problem.
Having checked my identity and labling me and making put on a pair of stockings. The nurse told me she didn't want my sample
Once I was in bed it was time for the Spanish Inquizition. I suspect they were not sure I was the person I was supposed to be. Everyone asked
Name? Date of Birth? Address, What Medication, Are you diabetic, Are you alergic to anything? This list seemed endless. I no wknow my name and date of birth off by heart!
When the Conultant arrived out came all of the questions agian including the Botox one. So I pointed out that was not my understanding. He looked at my notes and said " Oh yes I remember your case. It going to be a Cysocopy +/- a biopsy." Phew I thought.
I check out with him how they would looked at things checking it would be an injection of dye that will fluores. "Yes, we call it Blue Light",
After watching a couple of programs I'd downloaded to my iPad the nurse came to take me to Theatre. She wheeled me on the bed quite a novelty the other twice I'll been fo an op they made me walk to the Theatre.
Spanish Inquizition again.
I made sure that every one in the Threatre knew it was a Cyscopy +/- Biopsy I started on the Oxygen that seemd to have no effect. I remember comenting on the decor in the room very pink with a massive picture of a Flower. Next thing I knew I was in recovery and was offered a cup of tea. I thought that after my last episode I check out the plumbing. Nothing mush to see just a small almost empty clear liquid drip going in to the Canular. Before the tea arrived they wheeled me back to the ward.
Knowing I would not be allowed home before I had given a good sample of number ones. I set about drinking water.
The Consultant's Junior Doctor came along to tell me how things had gone.
"Everything went well. No recurance or sign of the tumur, They did take a biopsy just to be sure. So once you have given a sample you can go home".
So I celibrated with another litre of water. That did the trick and 20 mins later I got the all clear to go home.
Obviously I can't celibrate fully it I get the results of the biopsy but none the less good news.
So nothing graphic to report this time. But I hope it brings a smile to your face.
The only downside is no alcohol for 24 hours. :-(

Just let me know when the proper celebrating starts and I will join in, remotely... :-) Nice one Tom, so are you doing Sebring? As you know, I'm not but I will be in Egypt next month for a couple of weeks. 1st time I've missed Florida in March for about 13 years... :-( It was just working out beyond any reasonable person's budget... not the racing, but the two week holiday surrounding it...  |
