I need an operation to remove my gall bladder because of a large stone. When I saw the surgeon she said it would probably be around a 12 week wait. The 12 weeks expire next week. I just wondered how much notice they give? The surgeon said it was a few weeks but she didn't know exactly.
I can hang on a few more weeks in terms of the illness but would like to be able to plan home and work stuff over the next few weeks especially with Xmas coming up.
The hospital is the Hammersmith in London if anyone has had it done there recently.
