Thanks to all hear for the best wishes I'm coping with things and have pain most days for a good number of hours and have to manage it and even paying for an Op its going to be two months before the knife
I had been wondering where you are. At least you now know what whats wrong. Made me smile when you talked about the blockage. Helps us koi keepers to understand without medical terms!
Martyn it’s horrible being in limbo waiting for news of the results of tests. That alone can drag you down and coupled with continuous pain is horrific. 🤞your op is soon and your recovery swift. You’ll be fighting fit in no time and ready for a great ponding season 🤗
Well Martyn on the bright side you have lost two and half stone mate have that Gallbladder out and In know time you will be fighting fit nice to see you back mate all the best to you
Hi Martyn, Wow1 mate, sorry to hear you've not been well. I had the exact same thing by the sound of it. I had pain for 4 years and they couldn't find out what it was, until I started passing out with the pain. They eventually operated and found gallstones, which they removed along with my gallbladder. I was eventually told, I was lucky I was still here, as nobody has gallstones for 4 years. Any way, all good now mate, they'll soon have you sorted mate. Good to see you back and pottering around. Don't do too much until you feel like you can. You take care and stay warm, Terry.
Hi Martyn, I had my gallbladder removed several years ago (I'm 46 now) I haven't changed my diet or anything. I can honestly say that I live a normal life but without the flare ups I got every few months with it in. Good luck 👍
No apologies needed m8, Health comes first. Glad to hear your condition isn't the worst, hopefuly you get sorted soon. Looking forward to late spring when you're sorted.
Happy to hear your free from the dreaded C ....WISH YOU ALL THE BEST and a speedy recovery, keep up with the vids they are very informative and inspiring , take care
Hey Martyn, great to see you back. I was sh#$%ing my self listening to your intro then relief when you said the tests were good news. Looking forward to seeing what we all get up to this year..👍😉
Jesus Martyn you've been through the ringer fella. So glad you got good news mate. I do hope you're on the mend chap and the operation goes smoothly. Take care and look after yourself. Good to see you back 👍🏻
I’m sorry to hear you haven’t been well mate. I don’t get the chance to watch much TH-cam as I am so busy in my garden and trying to make a business of it after all the interest I have had and still getting more!!! I wish you all the very best and get back to what you do best…. Helping everyone in the koi world. Keep up the good work 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Glad the news is a lot better than you thought good luck with the op mate you'll soon be on the mend and feeling a bit better. You can look forward to the season and the better weather stay safe Martyn all the best Andy 👍
Hi martyn sorry to hear that you've been unwell must of been a very worrying time for you and not being able to be with your fish and work shop creating wonders for us to see I'm so very pleased to hear that it was not the big C and wish you a speedy recovery all the best wishes
Yes, you never know what’s going to pop up to get you. I had kidney stones and never again the pain I spent most of my time standing against the bedroom wall with pain. My son had biliary colic gallstones he had ERCP treatment first he said it dissolves them that did not work so he had surgery he was in surgery for around 1hour. A couple of years later he had the problem again with pain through the night this time they took the gallbladder out. You will be better than new once its done.
Sorry to hear you was unwell mate , I know how you feel my wife had the same thing, she had the operation ,, but still could not go back Eating the things she love. So had to stick to her low fat diet. Anyway take it easy and look after yourself. Nice to see you back on the channel. 👍👍
Hi Martyn glad to hear it’s not the big C I’m so behind with everyone channels I know what stones are like my son had them (to many Energy Drinks) and he still drinks them 🤦♂️ but at least you can get them treated good luck 😉
Sorry to hear you've been bad mate, I hope everything goes well. 👍 I wrote a whole piece as my missus had her gall bladder removed 3 weeks ago, and then decided to delete it. Hopefully your experience will be a lot better than her's 🙂
Martyn, Kudos to you. I have watched your channel for a couple of years now and kept watching due to your enthusiasm and tips. I hope you get well soon and continue to pump out the content in the spring and coming summer. I do have a channel that has been running for a number of years, but it is a little different to yours. It is related to Koi and ponds, but I also attempt to bring in the gardening part of it (probably a little unsuccessfully to be honest!) Anyway, over the last few years I have researched and looked into enviromental sustainability including renewable energy and energy efficiency. Although at a personal level, I do not profess to operate my home any where near as efficently as it could be (due to financial constraints) I possess the understanding how to. Like yourself, my profession is related to education. PM me and I would like to discuss how to move things forward. I look forward to speaking to you. Reply to this comment and we can go from there. Kind regards. Alex
Thanks for the update. Glad it wasn't the worst case scenario. Good luck with the op. Looking forward to seeing more videos in the spring when you are back fighting fit. All the best Steve.
Hi Martyn hope your well and make a quick recovery. Love watching your videos. Had a couple things from you in the past for easy pod fantastic work.i was wondering when your well enough if you do a lid for the cetus sieve with a hole for removal. Cheers buddy.
Really sorry to hear you haven't been well at all Martyn. Relieved for you that it is not cancer and hopefully you will have that op soon and you will start feeling better. Look after yourself Martyn. See you soon again.
Great to see you Martyn. So sorry to hear you have been in discomfort for so long. Worse still you must have been worried sick for a while until you found out what the issue was and what it wasn’t. I do hope you get a speedy conclusion from the NHS. I did get some Eazypod media covers from you late last year , they are brilliant Mate👍 Looking forward to following you again during the new season hopefully with you feeling a lot better. All the best Mate
So happy it’s not the big C. The bells sounded good but if you have them all the time I can see it can be a pain in the arse. With you not being well I don’t want to be placing orders for eazypod caps do you have a batch of them if so I will place an order if you can let me know don’t worry if not your health is more important. Great update.
Hi Martyn, please don't appologies for not being around, we can all see how unwell you have been. Hang in there and get this opp and lets see you back on your feet again. we all take our health for granted and something like this hits you really hard. Best wishes, we are all routing for you, and thanks for the videos.
