Looking forward to getting to know you and seeing your weight loss - sending hugs with fairy dust to welcome you to the minis x:)

Hi Julie. My name's Julie too!!!! I'm also on the waiting list at St Richards for a bypass. Saw Mr Slater on 29 April, now just waiting for appt with anaesthatist/dietician/psychologist. Do you mind me asking how long between initial meeting with the consultant (and which one it was?) and your anaethatist you had to wait? Whereabouts are you? I'm in East Sussex. All the best. Julie x
 
WOW what a welcome thankyou.
My story so far i went to gp may 08 to ask about wls and he said he would apply for funding which was granted in june 08 so i went on /st richards waiting list june 08 and heard nothing untill jan 09 when i saw mr tim john nice guy and he said yes i could have bypass and would be 5/6 months to wait.
heard nothing so phoned in april was told things moving and basicly wait my turn.
Then begining of may i phoned again after hearing about 18 weeks rule.
Christine said oh you are not on list shock horror:confused: she said she would look into it
phoned further 2 times and she said dont worry it will be sorted. will cont...
 
....cont
I thought this is riddiculous so emailed shaw sommers and guy slater and got responce next morning to say he would look into it and get back to me.
2Days later i got letter in post saying i had appiontment with anaesetist (yesterday 29th another story) and email from shaw telling me 18 week rule is a load of rubbish from government.
who knows if its coincidence or if my email got things moving but seem to have been waiting forever.:wave_cry:

Sorry really gone on will shut up now hope i havent put you all off me?

:copon:
 
Julie not at all it really helps to "talk" on here and always someone willing to listen. I'm fortunate to be going private but i did try try NHS route once a few years ago, got a bit p.....d off but looking back on it the time wasn't right for me. From what i've read on here keep pestering whoever you have to it seems to the most effective way of reaching your ultimate goal. So you go girl xx
 
Hiya Julie! :wavey:
Welcome to mini's!! I would be lost without everyone on here, I really would!! I was so lucky to have been left some money by a great uncle that I put to good use for my op so did not have to battle down the NHS route but I really hope you hear something soon!! :fingerscrossed: :cross:
:party0011: Xxx em xxX :party0011:
