Good advise oxman.  It is something I would not even have thought of.  Good to know Levick and team are looking out for the patients.

Sorry to hear you have to reshedule but the end is nigh.  Hang in there mate.  It will soon be all over.

I seem to remember having all my vitals taken about once an hour when I was in there. They come in with this big trolly and connect you up!

Good luck.

Stay cool. (Get it? Stay cool.....?! Yeah, that was a sh*t joke, sorry.) ;D ;)

Seriously though, all the best. Levick and his people are top-notch.
Another happy Levick Lad.
