I felt pretty emotional after the call as had not realised it was so close to my eye - guess I just have to get over it.............

So now they send me the appointment and I guess it will be a few hours in the hospital for the angiography. Does anyone have any info about this?

I'm looking after poorly husband at the moment as he has just had his right knee replaced. He's in a lot of pain but this should lessen. I doubled his painkillers last night - hopefully this was OK. I looked up the dosage on the internet and he is meant to take 150mm a day when the maximum dosage is 400mm. The physio and blood tester arrive this morning so should get some input from them if my Dutch is up to it. I was worried that his ankle looks very black/bruised. Honestly you do feel as though you have been strung up and left out to dry after one of these ops. I'll just shut up now.

Big hugs everyone
