Weight Management appointment AGES away!!

Hello everyone,
I hope you are all well & have had a lovely weekend.
I got brave on Friday & emailled the patient advice & liaison service to ask if they could tell me the approx waiting time for an initial appointment with the weight management service & got an email straight back asking for my details, so I told them & really quickly they replied with the following:
The response from Weight Management is that you will be offered an appointment at the Woodsley Clinic on 12/11/08 it will be a morning appointment but a time slot has not yet been booked for you, however when it is they will write to you with this information.

I was so pleased to have got a really immediate response & think the lady who found this out for me is marvelous but crikey what a long time to wait!! it will have been going on almost 6 months & I haven't even had my first appointment yet!!! grrrrrrrrrrrr at least I can stop watching for the postman continually now but am a bit gutted to say the least :( :sigh:
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
 
On one hand, like you said, at least you know your appointment is coming up and can stop watching the post... but I can understand how gutted you are that it's so far away :(

Sending you a hug, and hope times flies for you... :hug99:

Hellooooo everyone!!
I'm sorry I haven't been on for a bit, but I got myself in a bit of a state & my depression worsened so had trouble communicating in any way with anyone but...........
AT LAST I have some good news!!! HURRAYYYYY!! ROFL...
I emailed to Leeds PALS & they told me weight management would be sending an appointment out for me for the 11 November so a few days later I got brave & emailed them again asking if they would ask weight management, if they happened to get any cancellations would they consider seeing me & guess what...
They rang this morning & said they'd had a cancellation asked me to go in this afternoon!! Wooo hoooo I couldn't believe it!!! So off I went (c******g myself lol - sorry) & was only in about 20 minutes & the lady said she was referring me to hospital with a view to surgery (I think she said to see a dietician who would make sure I knew all the ins & outs & risks & lifelong commitments of having surgery) & that she was sending a letter to my GP requesting bloods so that sounds like good news do you think???
I am so excited!!!!!! whooop whooop lol
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
 
that sounds really positive Vicky, well done! The balls really rolling now!
 
great news Vicky - having that cancellation appointment saved you a lot of worry, building up to a date in the future, you must be chuffed that you are now another step along your journey!! Keep us posted on your progress xx
 
Hi Vicky, I sent you an email from work last night hope you got it as sometimes they dont reach their destination. I am so pleased for you chick we can make the journey together now......look forward to chatting.....Linda xx
 
Linda just got your email !! I will reply asap hun!! xxxxxx

Anyone know why they take bloods from us & what are they looking for??
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
 
Hi Vicky, I had bloods taken (lots) and had to fill a very large container with wee for 24 hours and the results were never mentioned at my appointment....so no idea what they do with lol....speak later hun...Linda x
 
They finally took my bloods, but then when i had more appointments after that, they said the results weren't even sent to them, but nothing has been said since.
However, i have a pre op assessment on Monday at which time they'll be taking bloods.
As far as i know, they're checking for diabetes Vicky, and they check your thyroid as well.

Have emailed you.
