Cancelled BA's

by chicksville 1st December 2010, 2:29 pm

Has anyone had their BA's cancelled due to the poor weather? Are you been given priority bookings?

Also I'm sorry if any ladies have had their BA's cancelled, it must stink!

Me too op on sunday and more snow over the weekend. I have booked time off work. Kids being looked after transport etc. Am stressing it will be cancelled. Don't know how far my ps has to travel so even if I can get there what if she can't!!

Mine is next Tuesday - and with them sending a car from Bromsgrove to Torquay, I am getting a bit jittery about the possibility of a cancellation. Fortunately it is mainly motorway and dual carriageway with just a bit at both ends on ordinary roads - so hopefully these will be kept clear - and the weather is said to get just a little bit warmer for next week. I don't think I could bear a cancellation after all the nerves/excitement etc building myself up for 5 days time

I have also been worried but as my op is on the 14th I should be fine....I hope!!

Hope everyone is fine - hopefully the heavy snow has eased off and the roads will be cleared etc. I am in London so it's not been bad at all but I know other areas have been hit bad :/

this is a good question chicksville, as today i have had my review appointment changed as surgeon cant make as weather conditions, i was supposed to be there tomorrow but its now rebooked for wednesday thee 8th..
not sure if its the same for ops to.. but i did here in the news that some uk airports have closed, i no gatwick has, and my surgeon flys in to do his ops as well as working in italy.. this is maybe something to ask your patient coordinator.. xx

I'm worrying now! I'm in Yorkshire (just spent 5 hours getting 6 miles home from work today) and have my BA booked on 22nd Dec!....lets hope it will be the warmest Xmas on record in some freak change of weather! Hysterical

My pc is just gone on holiday and isn't back with her. More snow due between now and Sunday! Guess I'll check with the clinic. Fingers crossed it will get better and they clear the roads.

by chicksville 1st December 2010, 9:24 pm

Bloody hell Georgie looks like your keeping the Yorkshire folk warm going out like that x

I feel for all of you waiting for the snow to melt or at least clear roads. I hope that you can all find wasys and means of transport to get you and your surgeons to the hospitals x

Thanks Chicks xx

God if I have mine cancelled I just don't know when I could fit in and plan to have them done again. Am dreading catching a cold from the children I childmind as if I get a cold it generally turns into a nasty cough that lasts a month and I generally go down with it in December - am dosing myself up with vitamin C at moment - can I carry on taking it closer to my BA in 3 weeks?

Thats not going to be much use if we're snowed in again!

Lots of us come down with colds pre op, me included. I worried so much that my op was going to be cancelled but it's only really a problem if you have an infection. I still had a cough on my op day but anaesthetist was fine with that. As long as they can clear your airway it's fine. I was told to take vit c by nurse for 2 weeks pre op to help with healing. Ask your clinic their views.

Chicksville - lol. Typical man.

I had my BA on Tuesday and I was really worried about the weather. The hospital said that they often rearrange general appointments but do their absolute best to carry on with the surgeries booked. My PS stayed in a hotel down the road from the hospital to make sure he could get in! I was so grateful cos what a nightmare if you have to rearrange. I have 2 kids too and hubby booked time off work to look after them and my mum booked time off to look after me!

I am currently happily snowed in at my mums taking it easy, while getting updates from my hubby about snowball fights and him and the kids putting the xmas decorations up!

I really hope no one gets cancelled. Maybe call the hospital, cos they really reassured me when I was worried.

Fingers crossed for all you December pre op girlies. xxxx

by Alt_Barbie 2nd December 2010, 12:59 pm

Iv shut my business today... No way im getting anywhere soon.
Southampton airport is shut & lots of trains cancelled... erk

by Bebe71 2nd December 2010, 1:06 pm

The weather is really stressing me out what if I get there in Sunday as it's not far and the ps gets stuck?

by Alt_Barbie 2nd December 2010, 1:08 pm

If its going to happen then not much you can do hun... But im sure they know how important keeping the dates are & will take this into account when planning their journey to the hospital! x

by pinkbabe 2nd December 2010, 2:52 pm

I'll keep my fingers cossed for all you girls due to have your ops. x
