Hey guys, I don't know if any of you will be able to answer this as it is probably different with each hospital/area/specialist. But, basically I went to an endo specialist in Birmingham and paid private for a consultation and an MRI which confirmed endo and he referred me to Bham Women's Hospital for my lap/excision surgery on the NHS as I couldn't afford it privately. It is going to be done by one of his team of surgeons and I had my appointment with them on 1st December to go through everything and sign my consent form for the surgery etc and she said it will likely be within the next 6 months that I have my surgery which is great (I cried with relief haha). But I am now going crazy checking my post box (I live in a flat) twice a day waiting for my letter confirming a date for the op😅 So all I would like to know is if anyone has been through a similar path with their laparoscopy and if so how long it took for them to get a date for their surgery?
Like I said, its probably individual to every hospital, area and surgical team but I'm driving myself nuts desperate to have a date to look forward to so I can get through the next few months!!
Much love 💛🫶
