Back from a very interesting pre admit clinic with an anaesthesiologist who was three months out of his FOURTH hip replacement! He claimed to be older than moi (but not by much I suspect) and has has two knee replacements, two shoulder replacements in addition to the four hips... So the conversation was interesting, it was a competition to see who had had the most orthopedic work done - and I won, lol. But boy, what an interesting man. He has made lots of notes and will try to get pethidine approved for me, which would be wonderful - AND he finished up by telling me my surgeon did his last three hip ops and he thinks he's fantastic.
Well, so do I actually, lol. I hope I get this guy to do my general. He was lots of fun... I cannot help wondering how he wore out all those joints though!
