First off,many thanks to all my friends who wished me good luck and showed so much concern,it really humbles me to have such great people around,you are all fantastic,thankyou.Last night had the best sleep I,ve had for about 12 months,so the oramorph is helping in that sense for sure.I also found it easier getting into the cab,it,s usually really embarrassing taking ages to get my breathing under control just to get in.Two minutes and in I got.The journey went quickly,good driver ,correct route.We got there early and was even seen 20minutes early.The only bad bit was the wait in between the ultrasound and the thoracic ECG.The waiting room was in a sun,yes SUN,trap so it was so stuffy but I shan't moan about that lol.Cab came quickly and home journey was cool.Don,t know about the ECG but the radiographer said my liver seemed to be ok,she also told me these tests were to do with transplant.So having had a good day all in all I,m still left in a state of utter confusion as to what the future might hold.Oh well it will all come out in the wash I expect lol.Summer,s round the corner ,happy breathing chums,thanks again D. 😝

So pleased that the day went well for you Farmer D and you will get all the necessary info that you need very soon I'm sure. Great to be able to sleep well and get in and out of the taxi the way you did - brilliant. Makes me feel more confident on getting Pete to the Brompton next Tuesday - by train and then Taxi from Victoria with help from our lovely daughter.

Take care xxxxxx

Hopefully they will sort themselves out and have a definitive answer for you in July - transplant or LVRS. So frustrating for you and such a long wait between appointments. Took me 2 months for first consultation but will be nearer 5 before I get to see him again for results of tests. I do hope this leads to a positive outcome for you, Dave.
