Hi all, Just out of curiosity, I was just wondering how many of us are waiting for ops in the next few weeks? Im cautiously waiting for Weds :shock: as for those of you that no, that will be be my 3rd attempt at the op. Not for the lack of trying mind you! Ive not told anyone except my hubby, mum and sister; everyone else is getting a text if and when it happens. Hope everyones having good weather today jk

    Had mine 3 weeks ago.It seems like a lifetime now.
    Good luck to all of you due your THR in the next few weeks.
    I think the waiting is the worst thing.

    Hi
    I've been told I need a tkr by one specialist who has re-referred me to someone else. Don't know when I'll get it done.

    Goodness 3 attempts at op! I'll keep everything crossed and hope this time it gets done.

    Take care and my thoughts are with you. Let us know how you are.
