Successful operation

Mary - william.richardson17@ntlworld.com

Jon, I was terrified when told they were going to remove my coccyx. I found your site and I can't thank you enough. It gave me confidence to just go for it, I had my op on the 17th September at the Alexandria Hospital Paisley. My surgeon was Mr Cartlidge, he is the greatest, I came home 24 hours later and I am doing really well.

My advice to others who suffer the agony I've had this past two years is go for the operation. All you need is a good surgeon, a great surgical team and positive mental attitude. It's now 2 months since my op I can sit down for a while without much discomfort, I do get pain but not as bad as the pain I suffered before the op.

Once more I thank you Jon and wish you well.

Good luck to all fellow sufferers.

Mary
