Update on referral wait

Hi all, just thought I would do a quick update. I spent an hour in a queue on the phone to appointments this afternoon and when I finally got to speak to someone, very briefly, I was told again there is a backlog due to covid and they have no idea when I will be seen. She said I was definitely on the prioroty list but couldn't say exactly where I was on the list or how long I would have to wait.  Not much help there, and I'm no wiser now.

    Hi Lilyjo,

    Thank you for the update.

    I am absolutely delighted to hear that all is well. and can only imagine how relieved you must feel tonight.

    It sounds as if you had a pretty miserable wait for your bus. We've had the snow and sleet here all day too. I hope that you managed to find something to eat before you travelled home again.

    Are there any plans to bring you back to monitor the cyst, or have you been discharged?

    Kind regards,

  • Hi Jolaminei took food with me as I suspected there would be nowhere to eat. The hospital is out of the city so nothing much nearby.

    No plans to monitor the cyst, it's practically faded now anyway. The doctor just said to see my doctor if I had any more problems.

    Thank you for your support.

    Hi LilyJo,

    I'm glad to hear that you went 'prepared'. It's good news that the doctor doesn't feel that you cyst needs monitoring.

    I'm glad to hear that you managed to get an ultrasound and mammogram, despite your visit being on a Sunday.

    I sincerely hope that you have no further problems.

    Kind regards,

    Jolamine xx
