Drat! Last week’s sutures from a trivial excision came out today. Except for one that resisted. Now I have 4 new sutures in the middle of my back. No actual pain, but ouchy! Plus it was so muggy I may have been approaching fainting in the nurse’s office. Recovering at home now.

oh dear, that sounds very uncomfortable. I hope you'll feel better soon.

@macgenie Thanks. Last week’s thing was fine and just slightly uncomfortable. Today's is more distressing. Plus searching for a runaway dog in the rain was about the last thing I wanted to do. A visitor left the gate open & I hadn't realised… Blimmin dogs. I bet guinea pigs can’t run so far so fast. 😒

They can but they don't want to. They are homebodies and neophobes.
