Oh No! But this seems to be 'normal' these days.

When I received the phone call giving me the date for mine, she said it is 'provisionally' booked for the 12th.

So much can happen between now and then.

What is the procedure you were to have?

Thanks lastec, your posts didnt come up when I searched for hybrid ablation. I like the picture; given the bruise i got last week from a blood test, I was expecting something like that.
