Stents came out this morning, and it was a thoroughly unpleasant experience. Hopefully the stinging will stop in a couple of days

Re: General health matters.

Thanks Dave
Had a kidney stone that was too big to break up, so they had to cut me open to get it out. X-ray beforehand showed another stone blocking my other kidney, so they had to get that out first. Must have been under for about 6 hours, but everyone was brilliant

Re: General health matters.

Feeling much better today and definitely on the mend. Yesterday I felt like I had been hit by a bus, today I feel like I have been hit by Mike Tyson, so that’s an improvement

Re: what are you doing ?

Got final bill number 7 from Octopus and it looks ok, but to be honest I’m so tired of the whole thing I have given up. £900 difference between the highest and the lowest final bill, so not trivial. Expecting money back in ten days I have no idea how the average person on the street would figure thi...

Re: what are you doing ?

Thanks Phil, I'm a frequent flyer! They still don't answer with anything useful though Called them just now and they have cancelled the direct debit due in a few days so that's something They owe me just over £400, but they want to charge me over £400 and I figured out why - they have swapped the da...
