Upcoming surgery

[Lou93]

Hi I feel very selfish for posting this as I know many people are in a worse condition than I am, with the news of a national lockdown I fear my surgery for next week will be cancelled.

This will be done in a private hospital so not sure if that changes anything? Due to have a hysterectomy.

Feeling very annoyed and upset about it all as this last year has been a sh*! Show of a year, does anyone else feel bad for feeling like this?

Sorry for the rant just had enough of it all and my pain is returning!x

I'm exactly the same mine is next Saturday and I'm so worried it will be cancelled x

[Lou93 in reply to bonnieclyde97]

Sorry to hear your in the same situation too, I’m meant to be seeing my gyne consultant tomorrow evening so if that goes ahead I will ask him about it all x

[bonnieclyde97 in reply to Lou93]

Good luck and keep us updated!! I have my pre assessment on Friday but I think I'm going to phone and check tomorrow about what's happening I'm praying that they are still going ahead xx

[Lou93 in reply to bonnieclyde97]

Yes I will let you know what happens, I was meant to have my pre op today but my insurance company didn’t have the right paperwork from hospital for it so there trying to fit me in this week but like you say it all depends.

What area are you from? Xx

Hi I’ve been to see my consultant tonight and it’s all going ahead for next week unless anything’s changes 🤞🤞xx

My first lap is booked for 22nd, also being done at a private hospital, but on the NHS by a BGSE consultant. Also dreading it being cancelled now.

Only good thing is my son is not going to be in school, I was dreading breaking it to him that he was going to have to stay off to isolate when his mates were going back.

[Lou93 in reply to Spireite]

Let’s just keep our 🤞 they go ahead. It’s a nightmare I’ve been self isolating for over a week now due to surgery next week x

[endotheline]

Oh gosh it’s not bad to think that at all. Hope your surgery can go ahead as planned. Fingers crossed for you x

[Lou93 in reply to endotheline]

Thank you I hope so to, I know I just feel guilty for worrying over it all sometimes when I know covid is out there and people are in a worse situation x

[Shoesy]

Hi. I feel the exact same as you! I am having laparoscopy, hysteroscopy and the mirena coil dont privately in a couple of weeks. I am so hoping it isn't cancelled. I have my fingers and toes crossed for you x

[Lou93 in reply to Shoesy]

Let’s just hope they go ahead 🤞for both of us xx

[mandykins]

yes I'm in the same boat I was due to have part of my bowel removed also my bladder to be removed and my left kidney. so its a big operation. was supposed to have it on the 15 dec but got cancelled because they said I will need intensive care after and they cant guarantee there will be a bed for me. because of covid. so don't know how long I will have to wait now and every day is agony! and I fell so guilty when I feel sorry for myself because people are losing there life's. just hope we all dont have to long to wait.

[Lou93 in reply to mandykins]

Oh I’m so sorry to hear what your going through 🙁 sending hugs and stay positive that it will be soon 🤞🤞 it’s awful to feel the way we do when what’s going on in the world xx

[mandykins]

[Lou93 in reply to Chicken2012]

I think it’s normal to feel like this so many of us in the same situation in one way or another, have you been diagnosed? X

[Chicken2012 in reply to Lou93]

Yes in January last year , endo ovaries and also adhesions to bowel. I’m 40 and waiting for a hysterectomy. Have you been diagnosed?

[Lou93 in reply to Chicken2012]

Yes I was in april 2019 endo and adeno 🤞🤞 for us both then with the hysterectomy x

[Chicken2012]

Fingers crossed for you too. Take care.
