Well, it was all going swimmingly. Then about 3 weeks ago something moved in my back, and I am now back on 2 sticks! The GP said that there must be another impingement (i.e. something is pressing on the femoral nerve) and to see the specialist. I did that yesterday, and it is not straightforward. To see what is wrong they need an MRI scan. But you cannot do this when there is metal in the vicinity. And there is metal in the stent that they put in my aorta to deal with the aneurysm. This will, at best, distort the image, and may, because of the magnetic fields, move the stent! They are thinking about it....
But we had a great time on the Rhine last week. Sonia was brilliant, towing 2 suitcases, while I followed on 2 sticks. Then she went on all the incidental trips, and I stayed on board with a load of books and caught up with my reading. I could do that for a long time!
Now things are on the move again, there will be more frequent postings. All e-mails and letters gratefully received.
