Hi all just wondering how long after your consultation appointment with gastro did you have to wait for a sigmoidoscopy please ?Also if I move areas in between waiting do I have to have a new consultation before awaiting a new referral for a sigmoidoscopy or will it be sent as the sigmoidoscopy referral straight away without the need for another consultation ?
