I missed whatever happened to result in your temporary absence and know that such matters can’t be discussed but, out of all of us, you would be at the very bottom of the list of people who I would think would be told to sit on the naughty step 😉 Thank you Selbourne I really appreciate your kind sentiments.

I am fine again. Felt awful Sunday night and all day Monday but woke up Tuesday and I was back to normal. I spoke to my cardiologist yesterday, they think my heart is fine but sending me for a scan just to check there are no blocked arteries. However they think I might have a lung problem and are sending me for breathing tests. Michelle 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A blood test picked up my artery blockage causing a minor Heart Attack in December 2019. The Angiogram showed the blockage and they inserted a stent during the scan to open the artery. Hopefully your lungs are okay.🤞 Take care. Graham. Edited February 25, 2021 by grapau27 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slight eye pressure so the consultant stopped the steroid eye drops but otherwise he was very pleased with the recovery. I am delighted with the Intra occular Lens as it means my distance sight is good now without my varifocal glasses and the Epiretinal Membrane has gone too. Graham. Cataract operations are brilliant. I used to be extremely short sighted and got the plastic lenses in both eyes. Now my sight is normal except of course the lens does not change focus, actually it can do a little bit, so now I have distance glasses to correct astigmatism plus computer and reading glasses. I also invested in lots of the latter in poundland as I can never find a pair when I want them, still can't find a pair when I want to though 🤓 Have a eye test next month so it could be expensive 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also invested in lots of the latter in poundland as I can never find a pair when I want them, still can't find a pair when I want to though 🤓 Have a eye test next month so it could be expensive My op primarily was to peal an Epiretinal Membrane from my eyes macular but the consultant decided to do the cataract too. I have worn glasses all my life and for the last 8 years I have had expensive varifocals which are great. The op was on my strong eye so I can drive and read the text on TV now without wearing my glasses. I have got my previous prescription glasses out and took the lens out of the right side because it was far to strong and helps my left eye from getting strained when watching TV. The consultant said he will see me in a couple of months and probably arrange for my left eye to have a mild cataract removed and wait until then before I get a new eye test.

Roger88 Posted February 25, 2021 #5472 Share Posted February 25, 2021 I have always been afraid of all those surgeries on eyes.. I mean seriously, like one little mistake and a person will go blind and its not like an eye can be replaced.. or be replaced easily. Be carefull people, protect your eyes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
