Surgery update

[Melaxx]

Hi, I went to my appointment for tendons alignment but when the anaesthetist saw my mouth he said was to small and bc of lupus I can’t open my mouth really wide , he said they will reschedule the surgery in a bigger hospital bc needs a bigger team to control the total anaesthesia so it cost me a total of £85 on taxis return for nothing but better safe than sorry I guess .

Hi Melaxx what a disappointment for you and at a cost of £85 for taxis it’s no joke but like you say it’s better to be safe , hope you will get your surgery soon xxx

Are you not entitled to patient transport?

[Melaxx in reply to PMRpro]

Yes but they don’t have it on a Sunday :/

[PMRpro in reply to Melaxx]

Ah so! And possibly why it was so expensive with taxi!

[MEGS53]

Oh nooooo! How very disappointing, especially since you'd made an informed decision to go through with it. Is there any way you can claim for the taxi costs?

🤗🤗🤗

[Melaxx in reply to MEGS53]

I’m not sure how ? If anyone knows, please let me know x

[MEGS53 in reply to Melaxx]

Sorry, I don't know how you could make a claim, but perhaps someone else can help??

Upward and onward

Oh no!! I am so sorry. Did they not do a pre op assessment? How disappointing and expensive for you. Big Cwtches xxx
