Hi, can you remember where you saw them plzThere are some James Cook threads on the site, just not very recent.
Hi, yay at last, someone from James cook!!! I had meeting with my surgeon last Monday and we decided on which surgery I was having. I have done stool sample and have lrd assessment and dietitian assessment on 21st Feb so it's all moving in the right direction and fingers crossed surgery is not too long after. How are you 2 years post surgery xI know this thread is a few months old but I've been off site a while and only lately returned. I had my surgery at James Cook 2 years ago and wondered how you are getting on?
Oh thank you you've really put my mind at ease. As much as I want this it's major surgery and I'm starting to get nervous now I know it's really going to happen. This site is great and I don't think I've seen anyone who's regretted surgery. At the lrd assessment is that when I have to start it or is that to start when I have a surgery date? My appointment Monday was 4.10 xThanks to Mr Dresner and the help from some very special friends made through this site I'm fine. Had a few ups and downs nothing major though. Can honestly say that the team at James cook are top notch bless them. It's not an easy path in fact a very hard choice to make but the result is worth it. Never in a million years did ever think I could be in a position to say his but it's the best thing I ever had done. I'm now over 8 stone down. I believe in the team enough to have my daughter through the same team and her dates are pretty much the same as yours. I got cancelled three times before mine was done due to no beds even having traveled twice and it's a fair trip from here but if it happens to you don't worry hun once your with them they really take care of you and won't let you down.

Just checked my daughter's appointment with dietitian and lrd is the same day as yours.I just realised that you may have seen us on Monday as we took our daughter for her app too x
Oh wow we really are at the same stage. I live in Dishforth so I've got both appointments the same day as it's a hike to go backwards and forwards, only thing is one at 2pm and other at 5pm so bit of a long day xJust checked my daughter's appointment with dietitian and lrd is the same day as yours.
We're bound to bump in each other then. Thank you for all your advise xIf you spot us then say hi Hun we look pretty much like my profile picture as it was taken since my surgery. I am pretty sure her apps are 3pm and 5pm as we are in Scarborough. It's a long trek but I trust the team so well worth the travel as it will be my girls first ever surgery. Xx
Hi, I've got surgical pre-admission assessment 8th Feb and was wondering if your daughter has hers round about the same date xNo problem hun happy to help if I can.
Yeah she got a call yesterday and has appointments changed 3rd Feb endoscopy 7th pre med and surgery date sooner than we expected but she's under a different surgeon. Did you get your surgery date yet? Seems they are on top form ATMHi, I've got surgical pre-admission assessment 8th Feb and was wondering if your daughter has hers round about the same date x
