After a few days of anti-biotic, I was still not healing as normal and still in pain. It is now a month since my Op !!  I decided to check all the incisions and found a further three stitches that had not been removed !!!! ........with tweezers in hand and a pair of scissors ...........snip......... these are the elasticated type stitches, which are suppose to dissolve, so you pull till it won't come any further (and hurts), snip!!!!! and it disappears back inside.

Finally the healing process can begin......... having removed all the foreign bodies the anti biotic can now work. I have been trying to get hold of the specialist bowel nurse to Mr Al-Rabaa, Katie Gardener,  and find out further, regarding possible Chemo therapy. I have left a message and now tried ring back, to no avail ......My next appointment with Al Rabaa is in November and I do not want to wait that long. I spoke to Michael last week, the chap that was in High Dependency with me, He is back in hospital today having his second lung operated on.

In hindsight I'm sure that would have been a better option for me to have one at a time.....
