I dont think you will get it till your funding comes through babe. Your inital appointment was about a month after mine, so it could be 4 weeks or so before you get your MBE.

I am seriously confused by this whole thing, i am trying to forget about it and just wait but its hard to, exspecially when people have had so many problems with admin etc..
xx
 
dont worry Rach.

Even though Dr Hartland has given you yoru pre op appointment - you cant be put on the waiting list for surgery until your funding is approved.

At least you are a step ahead as by the time your funding comes through your first pre op is already in the system.

Just let things happen babe. You have done all the chasing up that you can. Try not to worry so much xxxxx
 
I know, i know. I have just had so much time to think about stuff and i am like...over thinking...As usual lol.

Don't you DARE feel awful about it! When they told me they had cancelled the appointments, I felt like asking if they could allocate them to someone I nominated!!! ha ha! Glad you have them - still think it's an awful long time between appointments though...?

Well done Natalie!! Whereabouts are you going? Apols if already advised, I haven't got to the end of the thread yet!
 
went ok was a long day never got back home til 3pm.

Mr Khan was running late - got to see him at about 11.30ish and was over in 10mins - he couldn't understand why I had been asked to come and see him - he wants to do my gall bladder removal by key hole as it easier so he is going to write to the pct and see if they will change their minds and agree to both proceedures being done key hole. He did say if not then they could do it after but I said that I would rather have them done together. Thene we went to the easi book suite for my pre op. 1st bit was fine, they checked my weight and height and then checked my wee sample, had trouble getting a blood pressure reading so had to it on my lower arm had an ecg and they swabbed my nose and groin for mrsa. Then the fun really started. The nurse was not impressed because she had been working since o without a break (it was now 12.30) we went through a whole load of questions and then came the blood time I forwarned her that I rarely give my blood from my arm and especially using the vacum system instead of syringe. She tried each arm and then said she could n't do it sent me to pathology gets there at 1.10 and the queue is coming out the door when I queried the wait time cause my lung function test was at 2 they said there was only 1 phlebotomist on and would be about an hour and half but cutting a long story short i was in there 20 mins. lung function test was ok but nearly passed out you have to breathe into a machine normally then take a deep breathe and fill your lungs as much you can then you have to blow out hard til he says stop we did this 4 times - the fourth time was when i nearly passed out but he said they were fine and nothing to worry about. Should find out the results a week on tuesday when I see the anaesthetist or if there's a problem they will write to me.
 
Terri I dont understand either why you had to see Mr K, I bet there was a mix up somewhere. I had exactly the same the problems as you with the blood tests and lung function tests...along with all the others ie swabs, urine samples, LOL.

Glad it went ok ish.

The next one is just chatting no tests required, I had Mr Y and his quite nice understoody who mad me laugh.
They ask if you had any probs before with anesthetics before...I mentioned that i usually have a sore throat and feel like I am being choked for a few days later, so asked if they could use a smaller tube. They also ask you to open your mouth, and rotate your neck to show the that you dont have any neck problems.
 
i've never had a general anaesthetic and the nurse today was very shoked and couldnt believe it lol. They gave me a pre op diet sheet and thats when it hit home that this is real and its really happening. just wanted to run away and leave it but I think that was also dreading them trying again to get some blood out of me! was also tired and hungry and very very hot
