[Cat57]

Good morning all, just wondering if anyone can help with the procedure, I have had 2 appointments now at Honiton, 1st was last december I had the seminar,bloods, saw the dietician. 2nd was in march had ecg and spoke to the surgeon. I haven't heard anything since, anyone know what should be next, I'm so worried I guess like everyone else that I wont be considered for surgery or get funded...do i find out if i am being funded then have the tests that i have read people have done like for sleep apnea or the tier thing......is anyone else at this stage ? or at honiton? when I saw the surgeon it was a lady I cant remember her name, she seemed nice... has anyone else seen her I think there is only one lady surgeon.... they haven't said that they need/want me to loose X amount of weight before I see them next I thought they would of... ( I haven't really lost anything maybe a kilo but thats all) should i be trying harder to loose weight i have read quite a few times that people have not lost as much as they were asked to. hopefully someone might be able to give a bit of info on how it should/could go. and to all you lovely people who are having this done I hope you all get your hearts desire... "to be healthier & slimmer" xx

As you've probably gathered each hospital is different and I have no experience of yours BUT I had an ECG as part of my pre op appointment. At that stage I had already met the surgeon.

Maybe it's worth giving the team a call to find out what the next steps will be and putting your mind at rest x
