I'm fine, can walk about 50m without frame now, and cognition is good. Best thing is waiting for two necrotic toes on left leg to fall off. Vascular Dr at Addenbrookes says they have dry gangrene and will just fall off. :shock:

Fun times ahead.
Fucking yikes™ !! Sorry to read this, Carlos. :( May I ask, have they found out the cause of your condition? You seemed in pretty good fettle health-wise.
Thanks, Lambrini. A few different things happened so was a perfect storm. Had a dissected aorta which caused me to collapse at home. Whilst collapsed my leg was trapped. So was taken from Norfolk and Norwich hospital to Papworth as they are heart specialists. So had a valve inserted and aorta sorted which is life threatening surgery. Had to call mum in the early hours to let her know.

Then they got other surgeons from Addenbrookes to sort the leg.

Had a Fasciotomy where they cut the leg to relieve pressure and stop potential Rhabdomyolysis. Sometime during all this had an ECG where they found out I'd also had a stroke.

So am under cardiac and vascular surgeons.

Leg causes a lot of pain which nearly on top of. Two necrotic toes all well wrapped up.

Cardiac issues - have scans in July to see how aorta doing and if further surgery needed. And ongoing stroke rehab and physio.

But hey, I'm alive and walking about albeit slowly.
Should recover cognition to pre-stroke times. Just do it slowly.


On the plus side CJ, Necrotic Toes is a banging metal band name.

Dang they clipped the bit about the stroke mags...



I'll improvise...

"I got you a few stroke mags too. JUGS, HOT MILFS inheat. ASSMASTERS. You should just
stroke it all day. You’re a hero -- know what I’m saying? If I was in here I’d be jerkin’ it all day
long. You pull on that thing all day long, you deserve it."

Sorry to hear my old mod mate having to go through all that shite, and credit to you for remaining positive and cheerful.

Very best wishes for a full recovery.

You’ve gone down in my estimation Madam 😡

I find your corny K-Dramas infinitely more offensive and grotesque than Carlos’ little green digits.
