Morning. I went to see a nuerosurgeon yesterday at Charing Cross hospital London who has put me on the waiting list for microdiscetomy. Can anyone advise of waiting list times please?

    Hi there,

    So sorry to hear you've having this trouble, really hoping and praying things get better soon. I've been having lower back pain for the last year and lucky that the doc has said don't need any kind of procedure or anything but it's still been hard to deal with and empathising and hoping that this procedure can be done quickly and can make a real difference. I don't have any knowledge of waiting times or anything I'm afraid.

    Praying and hoping and believing you will make a full recovery Mina and hang in there. Trusting God with the outcome.

    Craig

    Each authority seems to be different but I would phone the neurosurgical unit and ask the question directly. Some people have to wait 12 weeks others less than 4 so no parity across the nation. Good luck and hope it works for you.
