Car going into storage

[billy3]

Have to put the car away for a few weeks at least.Going into hospital for a operation.

It seems I have a Hernia.Can’t remember what type,but it is near my belly button.I only

went to the doctors on Monday 4th June referred to the hospital.Got a phone call

Tuesday 5th from the hospital.Wednesday 6th got a phone call to go for a pre-op.

Today I got a phone call to say could I go in and have the operation on Tuesday 19th June.

Got to say,I am Sh…… my self.I have never had any issues and I am 58 years young.

I have been told that I can not drive for 4/6 weeks.What a bummer.

Saying that they say it will be 8/12 weeks off work.

Being where it is (in your core) it will make every movement felt

I had 16 weeks off with a broken collar bone and shoulder blade and was bored stupid!

I hope all goes well for you ?

Good luck with the opp.     I’d get a trickle style battery charger and leave it on.

No nothing.

No Mods. No rockers. Just a chunky knob, thats now been replaced by an RS knob innit.

No tackiness.

Std as Ford intended, but with a space saver wheel and jack and nuts and wheel brace. oh.. and flaps, a man has got to have flaps.

Innit?

Hope it all goes well Billy. Please keep as posted on your progress.

I had two hernia ops in the same area. They cut your tummy muscles and everything for two weeks hurts.

Your man bits turn black ‘n’ blue with bruising, try and loose the colour but keep the swelling lol 🙂

I suggest when toilet seated let gravity do the job, trust me don’t even think about pushing ????? or getting that nervous laugh of anticipation because more you laugh the more it hurts which in turn gives you that nervous laugh.

I was proper sore for 2-3 weeks but after that not so bad but that was 25-30 year ago, so age was on my side.

Good luck all’s going to be fine  ??

Thanks for the replies,just scared to death.Always dreaded the day I would need a operation.

I shouldn’t complain,it could have been for something much worse.

The car is going into my mechanic’s garage for the duration so will be well looked after.

It goes in for the HG on the 13th Aug,but I should be well able to drive it by then.

Thanks

You’ll be fine, a gentle daily walk helps rather than laying in bed. I had a inguinal hernia sorted 10 years ago. Was off work for 4 weeks. Was admitted at 9am and out by 12 noon.
