i desparately need a shoulder operation to repair a rotator cuff injury which has been causing me so much pain.. Mr Matthews did not want to go ahead as I have a hickman line in my chest at the moment (for chemotherapy). The reason he has posponed the op is the potential high risk of infection..I had another appointment with another surgeon (not related to my shoulder) at the Heath and mentioned that Mr Matthews was not keen to go ahead and he 100% agreed that the shoulder op should be posponed as an infection could be disasterous at this stage of my treatment. Mr Matthews was right to delay but said he would look at me as soon as treatment finished also offered alternative pain relief until i am well enough for op.
