Could you perhaps ring your specialists secretary? Or the hospital general line and explain what's happening; they usually have a patients / customer care line, and can sometimes access your notes / find the relevant team.

It could be a follow up appointment, or where to send your post op notes. Hopefully it's nothing serious.

Hey hun I’ve kept trying but they never ever answer I guess are just have to wait for them to call again ! And thanks me too I have no idea why they would be ringing me they just said I would get a follow up appointment in the post to come in about 4-6 weeks . They did mention something strange about my cervix and they did wanna do another smear so maybe it’s to do with that . My mind just does over time lol .

Hi,I hope ur ok. I had my lap surgery last feb and they said the same to me. The doc took a biopsy and put me on coil for 2 weeks. He said something doesn’t look right with my cervix and it didn’t look like a good sign. He started to ask a lot of questions abt when I had smear tests n all that. I was very worried because I haven’t done it for years. But I got seen very quickly because it was private. It turned out nothing to worry abt.

Just keep trying to get hold of them,it could be nothing to worry abt,but I kno what u mean when they keep calling u a lot. Fingers crossed it’s nothing to worry abt. Let us kno pls. X

Thanks hun I know right I never expect good news 😂

Sometimes they call to see how you’re doing. I had calls after a similar amount of time after my ops, from the nurses to see if everything was ok xxx
