Title: off to see the surgeon
Post by: lilacwoman on July 12, 2010, 07:13:26 AM
I'm off to London to see the surgeon Tuesday 13th.
I saw another one on March 7 and he said 'too long on hormones and it's all shrunk so can't make one - you'd probably wake up with a smooth groin and a blind slit.' 
So I told everyone I needed to see another and tomorrow I am.
I'm in UK and we have the NHS so cost is not an issue for me - it is for the NHS but then they have delayed things so long anyway that the fault is theirs.
So now I'm gathering notes and letters I need to take and just realised that I don't have a copy of the letter the shrink I saw a couple of weeks ago was going to send me! So now I have to call at the doctors to get a copy.
there is always something to annoy us.

Don't worry! Keep going...You're so close, don't give up. Despite the annoyances, I would love to be in your spot right now...But I know it won't happen for a long while.
