I’ve been waiting 8 months, I got a call last month saying they’re spreading out patients in two other hospitals and if I’m okay to have it done in newham hospital. I was initially meant to have it done in the royal London x

Hi

I had a pre-op on 7th February and I haven’t been given a date yet. I did receive a phone call from the hospital last week (I think it might have been the admission team) who were doing a validation check to see if I still wanted to stay on the waiting list. They said they could see I had been waiting a long time for my surgery (it’s going to be quite complex) and I should be hearing from them in the next couple of months.

Hope you get sorted soon

I had my pre op and op date confirmed at the same time and it was one week after my pre op. However the operation was unfortunately cancelled but I was given a new date the following week. I think it's usually within a week or two.Kind regards, Laura

Hi have had 2 lap surgeries first a partial hysterectomy, then 5 weeks ago had the hysterectomy completed and they found a category B carcenoma attached to the wall of my womb. I am tomorrow having a meeting with The Radiography team to set up my treatments. Think it will be 6 weeks 5 days a week with a 3 months to 6 months recuperation period, l am 77 years of age.

Don’t know if this helps with your situation but please ask anything if you think it will help
