France in Focus

Yesterday I posted on here today I am réanimation.
A cardiologist in Vannes found a myxoma- a benign tumour in my heart IOn Weds I cane to the cardiac unit in Rennes. Tests were done including an eco graph by passing a tube down my esophagus. The tumour was the largest they had seen. I said it was because I’m English. It was life threatening and urgent and a surgeon forfeited his evening and operated open heart surgery last night. This afternoon I am writing this

Sorry to hear this Rabbit,but at least it’s good that so soon after complex surgery you are able to post

Wow, that sounds quite serious. So glad it was benign and you seem to have had good medical/surgical care.

Wishing you continued healing and good health.

Goodness Rabbit, that's quite something ! That's really good that they took such quick action ... and amazing that you feel up to writing on the forum !
Hope you'll soon be up and about.

@rabbit Wow - how are you feeling? What a superb service. Thinking of you and wish you a speedy recovery.

Wishing you a speedy and good recovery

Sounds as if you have been in very capable hands. Best wishes for a complete and speedy recovery.

All of the above sentiments from me too, Rabbit. Delighted that medical system dealt with you so rapidly, as needed.
Don't overdo things now.

Was the benign tumour found by chance Rabbit, or as the result of ongoing investigations into a problem? Either way, you no doubt feel most fortunate in having a surgeon give up a night out to perform such urgent surgery. Hopefully you never knew you were even ill and can now concentrate on just getting better!

Wishing you all the best, rabbit.
