Hi all and thanks for your concern.
It looks like my feathers are going to be cut for some time. My condition is serious and it will be a long hard slog back to anything like normal health.. Basically my kidneys went into almost total failure. I am back at home for the time being but have to go back for treatment and probably a major operation.
Being a typical bloke I ignored the symptoms and am now paying for it. I got tubes coming out of places you would rather keep to yourself.
I am 53 and put the difficulty peeing and lack of flow down to my age. It all moved very slowly for a long time and then hit me like a ton of bricks. Unbelievable pain which even morphine wouldn't touch. Anyway they have got me stable again even if still in some pain and probably never going to be able to pee voluntarily again.
Please, please, please if anyone experiences difficulty peeing and/or reduced flow go and see your doctor.
Ian.. I am very sorry about not being able to fit your new system. There may be a way around it next week. If you would like it done please give me a call. You are a good man and I would like to do the job for you if possible. I have totally cancelled 5 other systems over the next couple of weeks but yours is pretty managegable with a bit of help (Hint)
Regards
Andrew
