which clinic are you going with hun xx

I live in northern ireland so my clinic is called Fitzwilliam Clinic.. they are based in Belfast. :) I am 100% sure you will make the right decision by you hun.. if aftercare makes you feel more at ease then going to see another surgeon won't do any harm!!:) xx

halo, that would b great if it was compulsory for surgeons tohave to do a reop. do you know what the time scale is for that? And I think I will enquire as to buying extra cover in case it's an option
Thanks eddy, I'm confident now ill get it sorted and if I have to wait then I will do.
g and Blue you're right just kicking myself I didn't do this earlier. but maybe it's happened for a reason.:)
so excited for you girls, it's so close for you now. Can't wait to hear how you all get on xx

G0902 when you said before you have come off your pill do you mean contraceptive one and if so have you been told to stop taking it? Xx

by halo 29th May 2013, 9:16 pm

Contraceptive pill people are told to stop taking it hun, I'm on the implant so can kp that in xx

by kitty87 29th May 2013, 9:30 pm

I didn't know that and mine is on 9th luckily I stopped taking it on Sunday for my break so if I don't go on it I should be ok shouldn't I? Xx

by halo 29th May 2013, 9:36 pm

You should be okay hun think
It's 2 weeks before 2 weeks after surgery? Xxx

by kitty87 29th May 2013, 9:37 pm

Brill thankyou I'm glad your all here for the advise as I wasn't told that xx

by hangle123 29th May 2013, 9:37 pm

Hi kitty, it depends what one your on. I'm on yasmin and was told to stop taking it few weeks before (I stopped quite soon after I booked, as soon as I finished my pack). My sister didn't have to stop taking hers before her ba (can't remember which one she on). Best bet is to ring your clinic hun just for peace of mind :) x

by halo 29th May 2013, 9:51 pm

It's crazy isn't it that we all get told or not told different things we aren't supposed to have garlic 2 weeks before either or mushrooms (I did last night) but my friend want told that xxx

by hangle123 29th May 2013, 9:56 pm

We can't have mushrooms?? Read about the garlic on here. Got a reminder on my phone for two weeks before, no asprin etc! Can't believe it will be June on Saturday ! X

by Blueeyedsoul13 29th May 2013, 10:12 pm

mushrooms is a new one Hysterical

i wonder why?

but kitty don't worry, it seems different for everyone!

my clinic (THG) told me i didn't need to stop taking the/ a pill before my BA, they didnt even know which one i was one but don't think its necessary for a standard BA. They would advise to stop taking it for more invasive procedures though.

i double checked this with my surgeon and he is also completely happy for me to continue taking it, which is great, makes my life easier!

he is also happy that i just put tape over my ear piercing and i don't have to remove it, awesome news!!

girls i'm just psyching myself up to transfer the rest of the money, its soooo muuuuch!! :( xx

Hey hun, my surgeon didn't tell me to come off it but it does reduce your risk of DVT so i decided to come off it for my own peace of mind.. some surgeons recommend it.. others aren't as fussy. Mine knew i was on the pill and didn't seem overly concerned! xxx

by hangle123 29th May 2013, 10:44 pm

I transferred mine a few days ago so its ready for when I make the payment. I had butterflies, waited for this for so long and now its almost time! X

by g0902 29th May 2013, 10:50 pm

I got a bit of an extension with payment as i couldn't get across to my clinic to pay.. heading in tomorrow to pay the full amount... ahhh!! xx

by Blueeyedsoul13 29th May 2013, 11:07 pm

i need to call them tomorrow to pay, aargh! x

by halo 29th May 2013, 11:43 pm

Pay it right away don't even think about it girls :) yes mushrooms she never said why though?! LoL eeeeeeks girls almost our time!! Xx

by kitty87 30th May 2013, 5:23 am

Thankyou ladies iv got my pre op today so I will ask :) I knew about garlic but not the mushroom thing. It's very strange about the whole food thing but oh well. Have you ladies had your pre op yet? I'm supposed to be paying at mine tonight but the money might not be there till tomorrow help

I'm hoping that will be ok if not I have a back up plan xx

by Blueeyedsoul13 30th May 2013, 7:24 am

i didnt really have a pre-op, my clinic said there was no need if you had a clear medical history..

last time i was there for the second appointment with my surgeon my pcc just took my blood pressure, and the info about certain meds or foods was in a pack they sent me in the post x

by **Charlii** 30th May 2013, 9:23 am

Yey, finally have a ticker! Seems a bit late now though at 3days to go!

I didnt have a pre-op either, just a phone call to check no allergies, next of kin and blood pressure, which I just got over the phone from my GP. Didnt have to come off my pill either. Just emailed my PCC with my final last minute silly questions! Been tidying the house, giving hubby instructions and demands, getting everything ready. Really want to pack, but I think its still a little early! We're heading to Bromsgrove on Saturday night for Dolan Park (THG) on Sunday (saved some cash by using own transport). So excited!

by Blueeyedsoul13 30th May 2013, 9:54 am

wow charlii are you our first june buddy??

only 3 days wow, so excited for you!! x

by Blueeyedsoul13 30th May 2013, 9:56 am

omg i've just paid my remaining balance!!

by **Charlii** 30th May 2013, 10:04 am

Yep, I think so! As soon as Im back in my right mind I promise I'll put the whole story up online!

Paying makes it all a little bit real! Such a quick phone call for such a huge amount/decision!
