    Got my pre op tomorrow but my actual surgery isn’t till 17th January? I’ve heard a few people saying they’ve had to go back for a second pre op because the swabs they did at their first pre op was out of date where it was so long before the actual surgery? Wondering why mine is way before my surgery? Just wasting their time and my time by doing this surely?

    I think it’s usually 6 weeks, mine was today at 4 weeks early – 9 does seem early! Maybe it’s for annual leave or something

    @lyndseyp27 my PC booked it at my first consultation but I had already planned the date of my surgery before we discussed the pre op so I’m not too sure what she was thinking haha. On top of all that Warren Street station (the one closest to Fitzroy) got evacuated today because someone thought there was a bomb ? fab!! ? X

    @amyr yeah I’m definitely gunna ring them tomorrow, hopefully they don’t try to charge me to change the pre op! I’d rather go twice if they’re gunna charge me haha. Yeah they will need to have recent swabs so I reckon I’ll definitely have to have a second pre op! x
