Still waiting on surgery.
Posted , 5 users are following.
I am still waiting on emergency surgery (NHS) to remove large mass from left ovary. Told would be done with in 3/6 weeks. 4 weeks and have heard nothing. Spoke to my gyno secretary and I am number 20 on the emergency list! Does anyone no how many they do a week? Did anyone else find that the pain in their lower back just gets worse and worse each day? Also the bloating my waist has gone from a size 29 inch to 39 inches. I have never been told what the mass is my gyno said we would no more when he removes it. It was 12x10 at my last scan.
Random questiond but getting so fed up waiting,

You poor kid! What the hxxl are they playing at? Can you go back to your GP and get him to put a rocket under them?
I have the opposite problem. I went to see a surgeon a week last Thursday. I thought I was seeing someone about my shoulder - been waiting months for that. Instead it was a referal from a dermatologist about a mole on my back. I've had it all my life and it has never bothered me. He took one look at it and said it needed to come off. The next day I got a call asking me to go for surgery the following Thursday. When I said I couldn't I was told it needed doing ASAP and I must come in this Thursday - do you want to swap? I wish it was that easy.
BTW I'm not being bullied. Hope YOU hear something VERY soon!

Have you still not had your surgery? If not, would you be interested in being interviewed for ITV 'Good Morning Britain'?

Hi Northern Ireland. Hope you get seen soon as well. I can't work either and am self employed so it's going to be tight the longer I wait and then recovery.

Strike me pink cgcr60 I'm in NI too! When we first moved here (1998) we thought the health service here was excellent - well it WAS. But since the new hospital was built in Enniskillen - the whole service has taken a nose dive. What's going on?
I think pester power is your best bet - it's the squeaky wheel that gets the oil.
