Back from Hospital where Mrs TKK was given the all clear 👍. The material removed six months ago was the residue from a golfball sized growth that was removed six months prior to that, and not a sign of regrowth. Thanks for all the kind words of support, I took them to heart and they really did help. My repeated trek up and down the six flights of stairs certainly helped my efforts to strengthen my quads, being a bit of a nerd I was checking my heart rate each time I got to the top and managed to get it up to 135bpm. Speaking of heart rate, there was the usual concern when they were taking Mrs Tkk's vitals before the procedure, as a regular runner she has a resting heart rate in the low 40's, once they knew she was a runner they were reassured that all was ok. No sedatives, just Entinox so we were quickly out of recovery and on the bus back home.
