@Tranmere1 either highlight a section of their post that you specifically want to reply to and then click on âQuoteâ which will magically appear above it, or alternatively, use the little grey âReplyâ arrow immediately under the post rather than the blue âReplyâ arrow at the bottom.

They will if you ask most likely. But probably wonât offer automatically.
Sending positive vibes to you John, youâre in good hands Iâm sure! Good luck.

After what feels like a million appointments and scans, it appears that itâs contained in the prostate which is good news. Thereâs almost certainly going to be surgery but I can live with that (see what I did thereâŚ
)
One good thing though was realising how good it is to be in control of your own destiny to an extent. I got the PET Scan result this morning and it wasnât conclusive in one area so I was prescribed for another MRI. Straight on to Doctolib with a quick search for whatâs available today (I didnât care where, I wasnât going to be denied my âcertaintyâ) and I had one within the hour after a mere half hour walk to the next hospital. I do like French healthcare though I recognise that I have the good fortune to be in the Paris suburbs where thereâs lots of availability.

Good news - hopefully a quick snip and polish and you will be all sorted.
Just a quick update that surgery is 21 May. Still reasonably calm other than a bit of a wobble when I passed the incontinence section in Costco at the weekend 
Just a bit of a sinking feeling about the after effects but, as ever, it didnât last long.
I donât think my colleagues knew how to deal with my suggestion that, if they wanted to get me a gift, then a subscription to Tena For Men wouldnât go wrong.
