OT. Re: from the 'other side'

Jeanne, the angiogram is not a major, just mostly uncomfortable from
what I remember. It's been a few years since I had the last stent put
in.
My last name is Murray and live at Glenbrook (15 mins from Drury). I
actually started school at Blockhouse Bay School .
Thankyou.
Carol in Auckland, NZ

oh my, i had no idea. here i am complaining and your procedure is much more
serious i think.
good luck with that. the nursing staff at Middlemore i found superb. even
the food wasnt as bad as i expected, lol. i found that after 8 hrs on the
table i wasnt up to chewing so wanted the fortified milk (high protein, you
gotta ask for it tho), yogurt and soft foods all i could handle for the
first 2 to 3 days, til i got enough energy from those to actually chew. then
it was still pretty softish foods. i also asked for a high protein diet
(scrambled eggs choice for breakfast and other snacks given with the 3x cups
of tea after meals, for me to save til i needed something else. usually i
chose cheese and crackers. its only a slice of processed cheese but i found
it hit the spot and i dont eat that as a rule. the high protein is necessary
for fast healing after any hospital procedure, illness or stress our bodies
go thru. you do have to ask tho and they'll get the dietician round to
discuss it with you. its those extras on your special menu that not
everyone gets cuz not everyone asks. :) so do ask for high protein.
how long do they keep you in? if i knew your last name i'd call for a chat
or at least to check on your progress....if thats ok with you. :)
good luck and take no prisoners. :D
