Hi Martin and Anna
This is all sounding like an absolute nightmare! I have spent much of the day on the phone trying to get through to anyone that can help but with no luck. I spoke to a lady in the bariatric office twice and she promised to call me back this afternoon. I have emailed Dr slater (he saw me in clinic but Chris Pring is doing the op) but I have not heard anything yet. I’m so frustrated as I’m sure you all are. Nobody seems to be telling us anything and it’s really not good practice to leave people in limbo like this. I have not been doing the milk diet as I can’t drink milk so I have had to do 2 weeks of the totally carb free diet. It is fairly unpleasant in itself (side effects etc) but also very expensive for food shopping. My partner has organised time off work and we have booked a hotel for the night before which is non refundable.
Grrrr sorry I’m ranting a bit but it’s taken so long to get here just to fall at the last hurdle. I’m sure you all feel the same. I work for the NHS and always tell my staff that communication is the key to good practice. A slight failing here I think!!
Fingers crossed for everyone in thus situation. Let’s hope we get it sorted out soon.
Love
Katy x
