Problems came to light after he required medical attention for back issue that were causing him a great deal of pain, following earlier knee replacement surgery.

But the great thing has been that the team my GP assembled to check out the possibilities has moved Heaven and Earth to gather all the information I need quickly."
May now reports that, although he has one more scan to go, the previous procedures have "eliminated a lot of nasty things" and he's feeling "cautiously optimistic." He had a lot more to say.
