I'm struggling with this pain now. It doesnt matter what the doctors give me, it doesn't help. I've been signed off work for 5 days and I'm still struggling. How long is the wait for the operation?

Sorry to hear you're struggling. The waiting all depends where you are and what hospital you're with. I was told in January they wanted to do the lap and it was done at the end of October

I was put on the waiting list Dec last year and had my operation in October. I hope you don't have to wait that long! Xx

Ask to be referred on the choose and book system, I was originally given 5 month wait, then went through choose and book and had surgery about 6 weeks after being told I needed the surgery. I had it done at private hospital on the NHS! Best way!
