Hi
Yippee :) I've just got my date of 6/6/13 for my foot surgery I can't wait the pain is so bad :cry:
Got my crutches ready and my friend should be the scrub nurse for my op and hopefully my other friend will be working that day too on day surgery so I won't feel anxious

    Will mark that date and will send you a message nearer the time...Be quite good to know that one of your friends will be undertaking the procedure...

    That is good news, at last there is a glimmer of light at the end of this particular tunnel. Good luck with it - I am sure all will go well and be well. DD

    I hope it goes well, Maria. At least you'll have every faith in your surgical team :)

    Hi
    I've got my pre assessment date for 24/5/13 at 17.30 a rather strange time
    When I did the occasional pre assessment clinic we had to be finished by 17.00 how things have changed
    Still think its a silly time rush hour in Harrogate is a nightmare so hopefully I won't be late
    Also got time I have to be at day surgery of 07.30 but as its an all day list I could be going in the afternoon so nil by mouth after midnight is not the case if afternoon surgery plus why do i have to be in so early will have to get my friend to have a look on the computer system to see where I am on list
    Will keep you all informed
    Keep well
    Maria
