Hi Guys Sorry I ve been quiet lately but have just returned home after 5 weeks in hospital,What started off as a gall stone in my bile duct quickly became several stones which required an operation to remove them called an ERCP which involves sending a tool plus a camera down your throat to remove the offending stones .After a week in hospital the op was done and I was allowed home that same night.All seemed well until I reached home where I suddenly became violently ill with excruciating pain I was immediately readmitted to be told I had developed Pancreatitus a violent side effect of the Gall stone op.Fo two weeks I was in a high dependency unit strapped to machines ,feeding tubes down my throat as well as a bowel cleanser also thro my nose.Various other things took place as well as a clot on my lung and a partial collapse of the lung.There was also a frightening episode called ''rigoring'' which makes your body violently shake uncontrollably like you've just walked naked into a freezer.Doped to the eyeballs in morphine for the first two weeks I hadn't a clue what was happening but gradually things are now subsiding and I am finally back home but it will be months before I am back to some kind of normallity as I have lost two stone and have muscle weakness/wastage Big''notso big''Mike xxx

Really sorry to hear that. Hope you are fine now. Btw does anybody have problems with skin? Just I have some little pimples on my feet. I read online and I'm afraid it could be herpes on foot like here illnessee.com/herpes-on-feet-pictures/ and it looks almost the same. I will go to doctor next week but maybe you have some suggestions
