Default Hi Bryanna

That was the point I was trying to make to PJ too. Why is her dentist making here wait the two weeks for the referral when she already knows what the problem is?. Why the extra waiting period? The UK must be very different. It just seems there is an extra step in there that could be remedied with a quicker appt. Then there is the issue of how long before she gets into the hospital for the proceedure.
Keep me in your thoughts tomorrow. I will be under sedation and glad of it. #18 is painful today, so I am grateful it only took a few days to get me into the surgeon. I am not nervous this time for some reason. Just happy to know it will be over soon. thanks for all your help Bryanna. I sure hope that doctor sticks around this site to help out. take care, ginnie

Hi ginnie,

I know, it's hard to understand how someone is made to wait so long for an appointment to see a specialist. But perhaps this is the way it has always been in the UK and so the people there are just use to it. I also don't know why there is a delay in the dentist making the referral, but it's up to PJ to question that.

I will most certainly keep you in my thoughts and prayers.... I'm sure all will go well tomorrow and you will be very relieved to be rid of that bad tooth!!

Make sure you check in with us afterwards ;-)

Bryanna
