GP agreed to refer me for WLS - So Happy :)

[Sambucca]

Im so happy, I had got myself worked up into such a state about asking my GP to refer me but I needn't have worried. He was so sympathetic and was impressed that I had done my research.

So he is going to refer me to MR Khan at Walsall Manor Hospital. He couldnt tell me how long it would take but said that he would send the letter off today.

So thats the first hurdle cleared. To those of you referred to Walsall, how long did it take between GP appointment and seeing Mr Khan?

:talk017: congratulations I saw my gp on 5th september and my original appt came through for the 3rd nov, but this was then bought forward to 23 oct so it was about six weeks all in all, I am really pleased for you:bliss:

 

[Sambucca]

Thanks very much everyone. ooh, 6 weeks doesnt sound too bad. I think I can cope with that lol. Gives me a chance to get xmas and new year out of the way before I have to think about it again. Im so relieved to have got this first hurdle out of the way.

That's great news! I am also in the first stages of referral. My GP has been really positive and even went on a course to learn more, so hopefully it will be easier for others.
Well done and isn't it a wonderful feeling?!
