    Hi Adrian

    I had my SCT in London. One big tip I would give is that you stay in hospital until you feel you are ready to come out. I left too early and that’s why I had a lot of trouble.

    I am really improving now , can stand and walk about for longer if only my taste buds would get back to normal I would be pleased!!!!

    Keep me updated and good luck!

    Thanks Susie I guess the temptation  is to want to go home asap, I already think 14 days and home would be good- this really does play with your mind.

    Take care
