Hi all i hope you had a great new year..things are moving rapidly since being referred to the royal brompton. I have numerous appointments on the 9th march. Got to have a VQ done,ct scan, LFT's then on ward by 2pm.. gonna be a busy day.. travelling down on 8th and staying in a hotel in sydney street..so not far to travel on the day..lol.. anyone used the hospital car park? Is it easy to find? I know i have to book parking but can i use it for the day before also?.

Roll on March....2017 hopefully will be my year..new lungs new life..more time with my sons..not been doing good last year and this either. Was ill over xmas and new year so no partying for me..lol

Stay strong.. lots of love

Wishing you everything good dash. I believe there is limited disabled parking which is at the back of the hospital but not sure how long you can book it for.

Let us know how things go please. Xxxx

Yes, Ive used the carpark (not as a patient, I had an exhibition in the cafe) and drove into one of the posts at the entrance - a small crowd assembled, not my best day. Cant tell you much else, sorry :D

Actually I got an overnight parking permit for next day appt as I stayed at the Brompton hospital hotel the night before..you need to ring up to confirm your appt & make sure you tell them your staying in hospital accomodation & hopefully you will get a permit, it's on first come basis so make sure your on the phone 2 wks before you need a space & hopefully you will get a permit..bit of a palava but worth it..good luck. x
