:D

I went for my physio appointment today and after my session the physio asked me if I wanted to see pictures of my operation :shock:
I of course said yes :D My plastic surgeon is using me and my op to train surgeons in finger joint replacement surgery.

The pictures were great, really clear and detailed photo's of the procedure I had. I have to say it was a bit gruesome seeing my finger in two halves while they removed the joint and then drilled a hole into either end of the finger before inserting the new joint :shock: Absolutely fascinating though and so clever. I'm glad I was asleep during the operation :shock: :lol:

A gynae surgeon who removed my ovarian cyst gave me the polaroid photos of my ovary with the huuuge cyst on it :shock: She thought I would be interested in seeing it :? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Oh and I donated 'extra' blood to Professor Homfry, Professor of Genetics at St George's for research purposes - I have a rare moscaicism (extra 'bits') on some of my chromosomes apparently :? :geek: :lol: :lol:
