Operation yesterday. Bit of problem, they couldn't do the spinal block. Tried a few times but my spinal wasn't playing ball. So I had a general anasthetic. All went well and I am zooming around with my zimmer frame. Pain control excellent. I did it!!!!!!!

    Knowing the trouble they had finding the right spot in my spine, I'm surprised more people do not get a GA.

    So glad you're now a pain free, and recovering hippie.
