Round and round the overdraft....soon to be no more

I found out on the 30th March when I recieved a letter asking me to attend an appointment (today) I then rang his secretary (again call #4) to ask what the appointment was for. She told me it was to discuss my treatment and so I said well I've been waiting 10 weeks. She then told me the original consultant I saw was only advising me - which is !!!!!!!! (excuse my language) as we discussed waiting times then too.

It's one major !!!! up!

I love and admire our NHS and they got me in really quickly to see a consultant on the 9th Feb but it's a total waste of time if she was only advising me.

My life is on hold. My OH bought 2 Harry Potter theatre tickets 18 months ago, they cost over £200 and are on the front row. The show is in 2 parts over the May holiday 28th May, it's in 5 weeks. I could get called for my operation. I also want it done before September because I want to start the year with my new class, it's important. Plus we have a new headteacher starting in September.

On the other hand I don't want to spend my 6 weeks holidays recovering from a major operation. It's a major co*k up!

I am on the waiting list :j:j:j

My consultant didn't know why I was told otherwise. It just may be a problem when they see that I've had an appointment today, so he wrote all over my notes to say I'd already been waiting for ten weeks and that I'd be willing to take a cancellation and that our appointment today was just to discuss the operation.

Fingers crossed that his intervention makes a difference!
