Lenny's Heading for Germany

[Robert Clark]

Just had a chat with the surgeon, my gallbladder had ruptured and there was one small stone left in a tract to it, they got that out yesterday.
Been told to get up walk about, drink & eat as much as I like, getting out tomorrow.

That’s great news
How long until you’re safe to drive again ?

 

[Vipar]

Don’t overdo it mate

 

[DBK]

Good news but it will be weeks before you are strong enough to lift a cassette.

 

[Northernraider]

Seems very extensive treatment for a gall bladder removal Lenny
Have they told you what they’re looking for with the endoscopy and the MRI?

His wallet

 

[Spriddler]

Good news but it will weeks before you are strong enough to lift a cassette.

With the enema clear-out he's just had it could be weeks before he needs to.

I had the shivering and temperature a few weeks ago I thought it was a reaction to solvants I'd been using also I think I had, had more stomach aches over the last year but not bad ones.

 

[Rob Turner]

Only just seen this, you’ve been through the mill a bit but on the right road now.

Speedy recovery Lenny HB

 

[Bustup15]

Good news Lenny!

I agree with what you said about the treatment EXCEPT the sore backside - that had nothing to do with the treatment

Driving wise they said 3-4 days originally l'll rest for a few days then seeing how I feel
maybe a bit of Stellaplaz pottering.

 

[Lenny HB]

Another discustin tea has arrived. Cheese garlic sausage rock hard pear. Why would you want garlic sausage & cheese for breakfast and tea every day. I quite like rye bread but not this stuff it's inedible.
The Germans love it, the only time they move is when food arrives.

I'm OK Mi sent in supplies eairler, mini muffins, peanut brittle & loads of fruit & real water.

 

[PhilandMena]

Sounds like we both (and a few others on here no doubt) have been through the mill with this illness! It does sound if you had a harder time of it than me and many others no doubt. Even so, I have a good idea of what you have been through.........and a fair idea of who's what's been through you and you have my untold sympathy and best wishes for a speedy recovery. I guess you will never look at these big Herman, German male nurses in the same light again. Keep safe and above all keep your arse against the wall until you get out mate. Until we meet again Chum.

 

[denisejoe]

Sounds like the food in German hospitals is just as bad as it is in the UK! When I was in Joe used to end up bringing me kebab from the local kebab shop.

 

[Clarky]

Glad to hear you’re on the mend and the escape plan is working.
It does appear that the doctors have been very thorough so that is also good news.
Take it easy for a while and pottering sounds like a good idea.

Flack Jackets ! Worn in Nr. Ireland. Some protection against low velocity projectiles/rounds but fairly useless against high velocity rounds. Quite heavy too, made one sweat a bit too.

Bosnia ! What an embarrassment to the whole of Europe, including us, who stood by and watched ethnic cleansing and wholesale slaughter being committed and never lifted a finger. Shame on us all!
