Fear not, this isn't about my penis reduction surgery!
I went into A&E a few years back with some weird liquid seeping from my naval, after the usual "thumb in the ass" test, at least I hope that's usual, I was taken up to the ward without much dialogue and told they'd do some scans tomorrow. As it happens my condition wasn't deemed serious and every Tom, Dick and Harry who came in after me jumped the queue, I had a CT scan after 2 days, an ultrasound after 2 more, nil by mouth the whole time just on the off chance I might have a scan or operation at some point.

When I finally got told by the consultant I was going under the knife the next day I was relieved. That was until I came round to be told by the nurse that the surgeon had decided it would be best to leave a gaping hole in my stomach so it heals from the inside out. Was a simple matter of packing the open wound twice a day with gauze, yeah, cos that didn't hurt much!

Apologies for length but you should know I don't drive, have no license, can't even ride a bike ;)
