I saw suregon on July 13 and he said he could do mine in September but as I am in England the funding process via our NHS is likely to be drawn-out so basically I have no idea when I will join the happy gang of post-ops on Susans.
Hopefully it will be before Xmas but it might be delayed until into the next financial year starting in April 2011.

You will make it.  You have the funding available.  Jump through their little hoops.

Here in America, it is on our dime.  And I don't have the dime.

I called the srs clinic secretary today to ask if she had had the funding go-ahead but nothing and I didn't think she would have.
so then I called the nose clinic to ask when they can do the nose job and we agreed on a tentative date of 3 October but we agreed that if the srs can be done around that time then the nose job will be put back.
basically I think I'll be lucky to get both done this year as my local health is deliberately delaying funding for me as they se me as a troublemaker.
one unknown factor is how long the surgeons prefer to have between surgeries in case of complications especially with anaesthetic for long ops.
so now I am stuck in limbo once again.
