Morning Sqad

[gness]

I have put an update and question on the Hello Sqad thread. The consultant was a nice guy, terrific shoes. x

[tonyav]

Tell me about the shoes gness ?

[sunny-dave]

Kevlar and steel toecaps, if he had heard about gness and other consultants ...

[gness]

Two tone brown....Italian I think. I'll ask at the next appointment. Mind you at £200 for half an hour he can afford good shoes. Still, worth it to know where I am and what to do.
You fit and happy?

[gness]

Morning Dave......funny guy. If we do lunch again my aim with the balls will be better. x

[tonyav]

Not to bad, thanks gness. did you manage to maim him ?. lol

[albaqwerty]

two tone brown?! I was hoping for more flashy a la Craig Revolting Horwood :-)

[gness]

Alba. I will do more research next time. Lying half naked on a couch waving my legs about didn't give a great view of the shoes. Plus he had his trousers on which only showed the toes....the soles would have been a giveaway. I will remedy all that at the next appointment and report back. x

Tony. I need him whole and friendly for now. x

[Sqad]

I have just found it.

As expected, angiograms are different from CT scan, but most unit use the CT scans to visualise the arteries after the dye has been injected.

No big deal.

The decision as to whether grafting will be necessary will depend upon the state ( patency) of the arteries and from your description of your symptoms, my guess would be that operation will not be necessary.........but the angiograms will decide.

Yes, if your problem is to be treated conservatively, then aspirin and statins will be required......aspirin to thin the blood and statins to block the formation of cholesterol plaques in the blood vessels thus avoiding the formation of a thombus (complete blockage).

So far so good, my interest remains, particularly about the lessons ;-)

[tonyav]

Mmmmm, ''half naked waving my legs about '' LOL.

[Hopkirk]

"He had his trousers on"

"I will remedy all that at the next appointment and report back"

[albaqwerty]

'plus he said something non-medical which was worth the fee alone'

go on, spill!!!

[ChuckFickens]

Is morning sqad anything like morning wood?

[tonyav]

Morning glory, Chuck !

[albaqwerty]

I've got a headache....

[tonyav]

LOL, is that drilling alba.

[gness]

Thank you Sqad. I will start on Aspirin and discuss Statins with my GP re. side effects. Looks like I will take them though.
The tests should come through quite soon but I am fairly sure I can avoid surgery. I certainly seem better now than I did three or four weeks ago.

Thank you for your help......and you really did help.x

Now lessons......I'm quite looking forward to teaching you. You will never look at a pint of Guinness in the same way again!
Love G xxx

[sunny-dave]

take 600mg of ibuprofen and brace yourself ...

[albaqwerty]

Dave, was that advice for sqad? :-D

Tony, yep and they're still at it!! Fancy rubbing me head?

[tonyav]

It's true sqad, I have not been the same since reading gness's discription of her drinking a pint of Guinness throw the viagra away !. lol

[gness]

Don't know how you can all be so insensitive when I am discussing matters of life and death here.

It wasn't just what he said that was worth the fee,it was the way in which he said it.
Surprised us both. ;-)
