I've been under the knife a couple of times (one knee; one elbow; both self-inflicted - my elbow is equally bionic) so any trepidation is entirely understood. No matter how 70s Benny Hill it sounds, having an attractive nurse by the bed when you wake up does wonders. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=4083#post-42404 Tue, 04 Oct 2011 09:36:15 +0000 Nelly 42404@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Previous post refers <a href="http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=3115#post-32947">arthritic hip</a></p> <p>Decision made - I am getting the hip resurfacing operation on 26 october.</p> <p>Slightly nervous, but needs must etc. Cant walk to The Meadows and back - half a mile in total.</p> <p>If you are at all interested in the making of a bionic man, I will (assuming it all goes ok!) be tweeting from the hospital @nelly0168 </p>
