A quick update on Murray. He remains sat in hospital absolutely going stir crazy! We found out that if the MRI was to be done in the private hospitals it would mean waiting till at least next week till the operators are back from leave. Dr Tan has managed to get a booking at Canberra Hospital for Thursday. It would again appear that only one doctor can do this specialised Heart MRI, he has just become the Director of Medicine at the hospital and it is very hard to get a booking for this procedure. Anyway hopefully it will go ahead on Thursday and this test should confirm the diagnosis of Hypertropic Cardiomyopathy. Dr Tan told Murray today that if it's decided to go ahead with inserting the defibrilator this could possibly happen on Friday. So Murray is fully equipped with lots of movies and TV downloads to keep him occupied for a bit longer! I'll update once we hear any further news.
