Oh Snoops... happy100 I am sorry that I missed this yesterday.  I hope that today is going as well as it could be given the circumstances.

Implant has been put though its paces (Nice pun there) and their computers can find nothing wrong with it. It has a full battery, the leads are OK, the machine is functioniing normally ~ Soooooo ~ From the techies the all clear then onto the Cardiologists.
Their considered opinion is that whilst the chemo lowered my immune system's resistance the body attempted a "rejection" of the foreign body ie the implant causing an "infection".
The plan is to treat it with antibiotics for 2 weeks then I have to go back. The chances are 1in 5 that the drugs will do the trick. In the probable event that they don't they will then book me in to have the implant removed, pack the "pouch" that it sits in with more antibiotics and re-site a new box on the other side of my chest. If this is needed it will be done within 7 to 10 days.

On balance that sounds like good-ish news.

Well I bought some chocs back for the work, never been empty of sweeties desk, but on balance they can do without them.  I'll put them by your basket, but you'll need one of us to take the paper off first.

If they're foil wrappers, leave them on. It makes it easier to spot where he's crapped at night cos it reflects in the moonlight (from a story once heard on the radio)

Skallypool hosp today for a verdict .... Have the antibiotics done their stuff or is it to be an operation?
Since the swelling and soreness are undiminished I suspect the latter in which case they want to do it within 10 days.

Meanwhile the cancer people have woken up to the fact that they need to carry out a second operation to remove the remaining tumours from my bladder. In fact they were supposed to have done this 2 months ago.   angry041:
It seems they have assigned me to a different consultant and want me to attend on Wed for pre-op assessment  ::) With op to follow a week later.

I have no idea which is the more important operation but what is certain .... they can't both have me at the same time.  noooo:

I shall let them sort it out.  rubschin:
