Hi Guys
Those of you who have seen me hobbling around for the last few years may be interested to know that last week I had an artery graft from under my armpit, down into my groins, to improve the flow of blood to my legs.
Unfortunately there were slight complications and I was urgently whipped back into hospital for obs and treatment of a hospital-induced infection.
However, I am now back home, although with a tube in my arm, and have to attend the local hosp[ital daily for ten days for intravenous injections of antibiotics.
The best outcome is that I have been able to walk 600 yards without pain, rather than the twenty yards that I was able to cover the last few months.
Looking forward to 2007 festival season and seeing you all, plus answering any medical queries that are within my remit.
Colyn.

Really screws up that song:
Now the arm bone's connected to the thigh bone
And the thigh bone's connected to the leg bone...

Sorry
I am glad that you are healing. Happy New Year and a Healthy one, Bonecruncher.
