There are times when I worry about you Eugene :shock:
As you probably have guessed from my posts earlier today, I'm back home after the op. One thing I've found is that my left hand spells even worse than my right? I'm a bit sore and I am feeling a bit sorry for myself, BUT the pain will subside and the painkillers are keeping most at bay. They kept me in 2 nights and I got home yesterday lunchtime. Settling the bill on the way out was a shock though. I had the phone but couldn't be bothered with the haunted fish tank (TV) and as i had made one call out had to pay 38 centimes. That was the complete bill. If you don't have a top up insurance here a hospital bill can be a very nasty surprise and a bit like a poke in the stick with a sparp eye, or sumfin like that?
The Clinic Medipol Garonde Toulouse is less than 2 years old and very impressive. The nursing staff were very very good and we managed to have a laugh often. The partial fusion of my wrist was done under local nerve block and was eally effective and the only real shock was when the surgeon started belting seven bells out of it with a hammer and chisel Shocked Shocked I had a green cloth between me and he so the first indication I got was the first thump!!!!! No wonder it's ruddy well bruised! All gone now though
