    I had exactly the same experience last year, a very fast referral, total professionalism at the breast clinic and... thank goodness... a false alarm. Nothing but praise for the clinic staff.
    Hope you get an appointment soon Steff.

    Re: One for the girls

    I received a letter last week inviting me for a smear test and I chucked it in the bin as I've always done. I've now retreived the letter.

    Have you had it done yet? Nag nag.

    At last after making a polite fuss I have a date for my op. I've been given a Saturday appointment; 14th November. Not so long now.

    Oh yes. Managed to get an appointment sorted - in between all my other appointments; I'm due to have jaw surgery a few days after your op.
    Glad to hear you've now got a date sorted Stef. Best wishes, x

    Jaw surgery? Yikes poor you. Nothing major I hope?

    I have my pre-op on Monday. The letter came today covered in pink and green highlighter. Very pretty!

    Afraid its cancer, finger crossing didn't work Chemo and radiotherapy required, also a lump found under arm that requires a biopsy, she's a positive lady that just wants to get on with the treatment and take whatever it throws at her, brave, my thoughts are with her.

    Pleased everything went well for you! Have you got to have follow up appointments or can you just put your feet up now?

    Just me left now with the jaw thing. Starting to get into a mild fret with it - my jaws will be wired together for 6 weeks. Feel a bit silly really having read all the stories above, as my op is mostly for cosmetic purposes, although because the bite isn't right some of my teeth migh fall out when I'm older. Slight risk of blindness with the op though. Arrgh!!!

    Sorry for going off thread slightly!
