After a few years of visits to the ENT in Canterbury and Ashford hospitals, for various infections in my right ray, I developed BPPV which was correct, but little did I know what was really happening inside my ear. Again after a few scans it was discovered that I had developed and needed an urgent operation for the following : Rt cholesteatoma with LSCC fistula, Rt combined approach tympanoplasty with PORP, fistula repair and attic obliteration Once I signed the consent form that very after resulted in seveal phone calls for pre op assessments etc,. The admission team were really wonderful at 7:30 am and after getting checked out, I saw the "sleep doctor" a fine young man with re-assured me of a good sleep. Five hours later, I woke in recovery, with Dr Neumann cheking me over and being a bit like have BPPV, she suggested I stay over night sothat they could keep and eye on me. By that eveing, I was walking around testing my balance and other fuctions and was pleased to report no issues and subsequently was discharged the following day. I couldtinued to make progress at home with a week of doing nothing (bliss ) and slowly began to walk our dog and attempt driving. Being in the traffic police way back, I was testing my senses as I drove to the corner shops and all was well. A month later The doctor removed the ear plus and I herebt personally wish to thak her and the OR team for the great work they did on my ear. T o the "sleep doctor" wow what a nice switch off of the lights and thankyou for our interesting chat while the team prepared me. While I understood there were possible issues which could go wrong, I am fully recovered bar a hearing test within 2 months or so. To Dr Neumann, I realised I was in her good hands and hereby express my gratitude for her work and care.
