Thank you so much to everyone who replied to my previous post - your words and support was incredibly appreciated!

I did it - was in and out in under an hour. The nurses were SO lovely and reassuring; I was talked through each step of the process and I felt no pain whatsoever!

Best wishes

Definitely! I bled a lot to the point the nurse asked me 3 times if I was sure I’m not on blood thinners and kept asking for more gauze 🙈🙈 but it’s behaving itself now so that’s the main thing 😁

Feel pleased that I went through with it and everyone was right; it’s such a simple and straightforward process 👍🏻 x

So pleased everything went well for you. I always worry about hospital procedures but I always tell myself if it was going to be too painful they would put me to sleep. But it's difficult. Hope your feeling better now. Brian

Morning Brian

I share that worry and the nurse said to me afterwards “I really thought you might bolt when you came in, you looked petrified!” 🙈

I just feel like I have a weight in my chest this morning but I’m sure that’ll pass soon, thank you 🙂

Well done Soap, you’re a brave lady and it’s never easy going into hospital for an “unknown” procedure but it’s done now and hopefully not half as bad as expected. Main thing is that it is out of the way now. Try and relax a bit now and stay warm and cosy during these wet, cold and damp times. You’re amazing! ❤️🧚🏼‍♀️

Aw thank you ❤️🧚‍♀️ for your kind words and encouragement!

I’m in a bit of discomfort today but I’m keeping topped up with paracetamol so it’s all good 🙂

You’re completely right as well, it wasn’t anywhere near as bad as I thought it was going to be.

My children are all poorly at the moment so today has been a lazy day and I’m hoping to get away with the same again tomorrow 🙊

Hope you’re keeping well?

Best wishes

Aww thank you too for your kind words. Sorry to hear you’re a bit uncomfortable today and that your little ones are poorly, it’s that time of year when all those pesky bugs come out to play. Hopefully you’ll be able to all rest up again tomorrow, weather is a bit grim so you all do right staying in all cosied up. I’m doing okay apart from my ongoing sciatica which just seems to be stopping me from doing a lot but I’d rather have that than any heart issues 🤞. But thanks for asking. You take care and let us know how you all are next week. Take care Soap ❤️🧚🏼‍♀️
