Sunderland HELP! This seems like forever! :(

[Westy31]

Hi can anyone help me out. I had my GP referral in July. My seminar September. My dietician November. Only just got a letter now in March from the MDT saying 'proceed to dieticians'. What does this mean?? Is this tier 3? I've already been with Sunderland 6 months and only had the 1 appointment!

Yes it is slow at first then go's fast have you been to your group meetings yet you have to do a 12 week program you go once every two weeks

Yes I've now done my 12 week tier 3 course and have a letter saying I was successful at MDT and I have an apt with the surgeon on July 18th. Then what happens?? My biggest concern is that I'm a teacher so my only window is school holidays (

I had my surgery at Sunderland and waited 2 and half years all together, waiting for appointments for various tests seemed to take the longest, i needed an echo, sleep studies, diabetic specialist referral, then of course the appointment with dietician and 2 appointments with consultant. It was well worth the wait though.

I went today and my surgeon had cancelled his clinic due to feeling ill! Rescheduled for Aug 8th

You sound a bit fed up and I'm not surprised. How are you doing?
