@gaylea1, It has been a while since I've had the opportunity to sit down and send you a "Thinking of You 💐" greeting and to catch up with what's happening with you.
Are you still scheduled to have your procedure on Mar 30? Do you know how long you will be in hospital? Or what to expect with your recovery?

@rosemarya hi Rosemary. They have found another block in my bile duct so I will have to undergo yet another ERCP. My last stent was removed June 20/2020. This will be my 6th ERCP and if you remember I've protracted pancreatitis every time and had lengthy stays in hospital. This will be a new surgeon so fingers crossed it will be more successful. In Feb I had a cat scan, ultra sound, MRI and colonoscopy. They removed a cluster of polyps in my colon. The surgeon will have to wait until the blockage is removed and my bile duct is viable before any surgery can be done for the incisional hernias as they will have to use mesh to close up my tears. A long process ahead but I'm up to it.
