Cat Scan

Re: Cat Scan

I think it helps to know what to expect, Pixie. God bless, we'll be thinking of you....

Re: Cat Scan

It's not always a good thing to look up what to expect, it can often leave you feeling worse Your surgeon should really explain the surgery to you beforehand, then you can ask any questions if you don't understand anything.

Wishing you all the best for after Christmas...

Re: Cat Scan

All the very best to you Pixie, I am sure all will go well and perhaps by getting it done and out the way for new year is a good thing.

Very best wishes to you and yours.

Re: Cat Scan

I'm glad you have a date Pixie and I am sure all will be fine with the op and you will be well looked after.

My very best wishes to you.

Re: Cat Scan

My dear friend, you know it goes without saying from me how much I'll be thinking about you. If Jon will email me whilst you're in hospital, I can let folk on here know of your progress.

Re: Cat Scan

Good luck Pixie,what would we do without all these friends caring about us. Annie.

Re: Cat Scan

I too wish you all the very best Pixie and it sounds like you have a good surgeon there. You will feel so much better, all good news

Re: Cat Scan

She was so dreading today, and I'm glad that she has the lovely folk of this forum wishing her luck.

Having met her twice I can honestly say she's one of the best.
