Just a short entry. The stent is in place, but I still have tenderness and discomfort in the area. I'm told that 36-48 hours of this is not unreasonable, but here I am, 3 days later and I still feel as if an elephant has stomped on my stomach.
I have eaten small amounts of solid food, but I'm not that confident about it all - I'll wait until the pain goes before I have pizza. And perhaps steak sometime around December.
As an aside, my glasses were cleaned up with the food tray at the hospital on Saturday. After numerous calls to both the Hospital and its kitchen - and being told there was no sign of them - this afternoon I went in and got measured up for a new pair. As I'm off to the Rugby on Saturday with Denis, I asked for them to be rushed through. You guessed it, at 5pm this arvo, a call from the hospital: "We've found your glasses!" A saving of $750!

Hi Ant, hope things have improved since your last update. I have joined the 'on line' community and will keep in touch. Best wishes from A.Milligan.
Read your blog site - hope you're feeling much better - that you haven't got a pain in the gut anymore, and that you enjoy the weekend.
Peter, Rob, Zoe, Craig, Julie, Darren and all the kids
ps, we're just about to sit down to a large roast dinner - we're hoping that you'll be able to join us soon!
Darce, have missed looking at the blog for a few days and see that thinks have progressed a bit! Wendy & I did the 18 hour `relay for life' last weekend and you were at the forefront of our thoughts as we struggled round that bloody track during the night! At least the beers & vino during changeovers kept us going! It is so good to see that the stent is in and that the fight against Cuckoo is to commence with a vengeance. Lets just hope that the nausea goes soon and that you can get that big steak taken care of soon. Best, Greg
