Following the discovery of a cancerous polyp in my bowel I was referred to Professor Irshad Sheikh who was perform a bowel resection procedure. At my pre op review I met Mr Shaikh and he explained very clearly what to expect and what I needed to do to prepare for my procedure. He explained that my procedure would be performed using a robotic system which would ensure speedier recovery with less pain than the usual manual procedure. on the 13th of November 2023 I had my procedure at the Norfolk & Norwich University hospital. I was allowed home the next day although feeling a bit tender my pain level was low and treated with paracetamol and nothing stronger. Having followed Professor Shaikh's post op instructions I was able to return to work as gardener/painter and decorator (which is quite physical) as soon as the end of January 2024. Everything has been absolutely fine since my return to work with no pain of anykind. I can say that although worrying at the time my experience of this procedure relatively pain free with no post procedure issues and feel fine.
