Hello !! an update

Hello to my followers , If you are thinking , has she had it yet ?? the answer is no !! the hospital phoned me on the day before I was due to go in at 3pm in the afternoon and they said they had to put the date back to the 12th October due to being rushed of their feet in A &E that weekend .

I was so upset and angry , all that build up of making sure , pets had their food in , as well as my husband had gone to waste , but strangely enough I caught a very heavy cold and cough two days later , so maybe it was meant to be ,
I mean imagine !!, coughing and sneezing two days after a spinal op !!
So Ive accepted it was God's fate and will just have to wait a little longer !!
2 weeks to go and please don't have any accidents , will you !! I need my bed !!

Final pre op 's done !!!

Hello , It's not just me who needs surgery , My beloved computer is ill too and it will be a while before I can be in cyber space at home !!! so I have  joined the local library to do my main bits !! I also have a Blackberry phone which will help keep me informed .

Anyhow I had my final pre ops done yesterday , and have had my bloods retaken as they were out of date , I have to see my consultant on wednesday and that should be it until the day of the op !!

I have planned a few things next week to keep me busy and take my mind of it all , They include , coffee and cake with a friend , a overnight hotel trip with my husband and a couple of other things as well .
The light is getting brighter at the end of the tunnel and i can feel a bit more optimistic about getting life back on track , again finally !!

Background information on my condition

Here is a link i have found when I was first diagnosed, as it was very difficult to actually find any specific information about the type of back problems I was having.
I guess because there is a large amount of vertebrae, each with their respective cartilage discs and there fore different procedures for each area.
if i find any sites with a range of information on all back traumas as it were ill link that too just to help anyone out there who needs it :)
