Cheers Terri, It does sound like a change of procedure doesnt it. I do hope so but cant help stressing and worrying that it means Im going to be turned down.

I was given an "enjoy your food - lose weight " booklet and a couple of sheets of A4. Cant remember what they were now but I'll dig them out and let you know. I was told only to ring dietician if I had any worries or questions.

Sam,

My initial appointment was identical to yours. Weigh in, see Ana & Dr. H. I was given dietary advice sheet and sundry leaflets/bumpf and a sheet to hand to the receptionist. The dietician was away at the time of my initial appointment too.

The '2nd appointment' I was sent is with the psyche. From what I am reading on this forum, this does not appear to be standard and I am thinking that I may be having this because I am currently off work with and being treated for depression. I note that Rachel is on the same meds as me and thus I am wondering if her '2nd appointment' is for the psyche too (hence my posting last night).

If you were to see the psyche/dietician, I feel you would have been notified by now, but with the various c*ck ups one cannot discount another c*ck up...

I would perhaps pursue the funding application bit, because as you know from mine & Terri's experiences, it is not until that is in the bag that you can relax - a bit. :hug99:

Thanks Red. Im feeling much calmer this morning and ready to attack the phone in a bit.

To be honest Sam, I am a bit confused to what will be going on with my next appointment. So I think I will ring to ask what the next appointment is for. Hopefully this will clear it up for you?

Ive just finally managed to get through to Tracey Lowe and she doesnt know whether Ive got to have another appointment before my funding is sent off. She said she hasnt had a letter from Dr Hartland yet to enable my funding application to be sent off so she is going to email him to chase it up.

She kept saying you havent been to weight management clinic. I told her that Dr Hartland didnt tell me anything about that and that I was just told that funding would now be applied for..

I asked her if there had been a change of procedure as it seems to be a new thing with people being given a second appointment. She didnt know!

FFS I am even more wound up now. If the professionals dont know what is going on then how the hell are we supposed to know what stage we are at.

You know what? I'd now ring Ana and ask her what the procedure is and get some reassurance from her. She said that if we had any queries at any time we could ring her.

Rachel,

That's worth doing so you at least know what the heck is going on as the procedures seem to differ from case to case.

I called the hospital this morning, apparently my appointment in April is for me to see the doctors etc…and say yes I want the surgery.

But I am going to try and get around that if I can.

Thank you very much rachael. I appreciate your phone call this morning as well x

 

[Sambucca]

I've just left a message for Ana to call me back. If she doesnt call I will ring Dr Hartland as Rachael has now given me his number.

Sorry for the amount of whingeing and whining I have done last few days folks. I'm really letting this get on top of me. I just need to know where I am in the system and then I will chill out a bit. Promise !
