Well I made it through to the other side (of the pain barrier) Will take me a while to convalesce but I got home today after an exciting triple bypass op. They wanted to replace my valves, but found them to be serviceable/ On the way out from it I lost my kidneys again, then my liver, then my panceas. Now I have a collapsed lung to fix, but they felt pity on me, and I ticked all their boxes, even getting my sugars under control. They stopped my Metformin, and put me on 10 mg of gliclazide,but when that did nothing I was straight onto inulin infusions. When I hypo;ed twice in succession, then they listened to me, and put me on a compromise 80mg twice a day. My meter readings this day was 5 / 5,4 /6 and f nose tonight since I had celebration takeaway as I am wont to do on such occasions, New regime starts in a couple of days.

Will be back on the boards when my spider wot types is under better control

People whose attitude says "Me, my opinion, my desire is greater and more important than anyone else"

And to whom the principle of ahimsa is a closed book that they refuse to open because it would make life more difficult for them.
Take good care of yourself @Oldvatr - it's good to know you're through the surgery and slowly recovering.

I was wondering where you were so I looked at your profile page and found this thread. I can't believe I missed it.

Goodness, you have been through the mill. Did I read it right that you are at home now, released from the hospital's clutches? How are all your important bits - lungs, pancreas, kidneys and liver?

Take it very easy, and convalesce properly. Wishing you all the best and sending hugs.

Oh, I now understand how I missed it. You put it in general chat, and those threads are excluded from the new/recent posts lists.

Thank you all. I will be quiet for a while as my collapsed lung recovers.

While I was under the knife, my son got engaged in Turkey.
Great news, A wedding to look forward to. :)
