Finally finished!

What!  That doesn't sound very nice

Arse! You're a trooper that's for sure. Here's to complaining! When are you going in? Any chance of a Frequent Flyer upgrade... Let us know how you get on. K xox

All the best, @Batwoman  ..... thinking of you xx

It will be a small surgery, one night in hospital :smile: It's as good as it can be at present.

Bugger! Thanks goodness you were proactive and got it checked. All the best for the changeover. 
Hugs

@Batwoman Bugger. I wish you strength. Your experience is yet another factor leading me to question my current situation (still an expander in, waiting for the implant). 

@Batwoman 
Crumbs that is a so and so and that goodness you were proactive 
Hopefully all will be good, it has just been a very long road for you
Take care

Oh no @Batwoman, sorry you're facing yet another surgery but good for you for being pro-active and turning around a potentially bad situation. I hope all goes well with the surgery and that you won't need to worry about anything more for quite some time. Best wishes, Jane xx 

That's a bugger @Batwoman  - I hope you are able to have the least invasive surgery with the best outcome ..... We'll be thinking of you xxx

Take care & all the best for Friday xx

And.....I'm back. Because 9 surgeries are obviously not enough I now need another one. This is becoming the saga of if it can go wrong it will :smile: My implant on the side that isn't tattooed (thank goodness) is a type that has been banned due to toxicity that can cause blood cancer. I was aware of this and decided to be proactive and have it checked. It's breaking down and needs to be removed asap. This Friday I will find out if it can be a straight swap or needs to be a longer process with donor skin taken from my back like the other side. This adventure is heading into the 9th year now. Getting a bit tedious now, but at least I'm still here to complain.
