Rang hospital today to chase operation date for my hernia. Got told by the clerk that they'd cocked up and somehow i've been thrown out of the system and have to start whole ruddy thing again - need to go back to gp to get another referral etc etc. Rang drs only to discover i cant get an appointment with gp for 10 days! Have been waiting over a year and am fuming (ok i got pregnant in between which obviously wasnt their fault). My mum says she will pay for me to go private and i was wondering what peoples experiences of private healthcare were. I'm not in agony but it does really ache (its in my groin) and dont really fancy waiting another year only to get nowhere again. Good job I'm not an old person waiting for a hip replacement or something.
