Hi ladies just a quick update now am back in the land of the living . Have been told all went well but won't know any details till I see my consultant in the morning , got took to theatre at 3pm , in recovery at 4 back in room at 4.45 pm. Woke up from surgery feeling so cold so had extra warm blankets put on for a while , blood pressure kept dropping but is stable now . Cathetar feels ok at the minute but feels itchy down there ... Am in no pain as full of pain meds obviously , currently just having my first cuppa in 12 hours as could eat after 6.30 am this morning . Room is lovely like home from home ... Daughter and Hubby just been in to see me . I have those lovely stockings on and some more pad things over them that keep pumping up and going down lol , feels quite strange ! Was so nervous to the point of feeling sick while laid in pre op room , but the nurses talked me thru it and like you lovely ladies said it would be , all was fine ! All I can say at the minute is I've got bad back ache and am staving lol ... Will update more later xxx

      Hi welshgirl,

      Puerto Pollensa is so lovely, went for the day last year, we were based at C'an Picafort just down the coast a bit.

      Not been to Cala D'or matron, spent the day at 'Alcudia' at the roman part of town, and headed another day to Porto CHristo to see the caves, not to be missed. But yes Major a is beautiful and the north east coast is so lovely. We have went to C'an Picafort for the last 2 years. Palma itself is lovely too, love seeing the cruise ships and cathedral is lovely.

      Phyl xx☺☺☺

      I'd better stop or before you know it I'll turn the forum into a holiday forum !

    Hi Sarah,

    Glad to hear you've had your surgery and all is well.

    Good to get it by, take your progress slow and easy, and look after yourself . It's time now for you to sit back and let your family run after you for a while.

    Phyl 💖
