All excitement has gone

Sorry to be so negative but I am not excited one bit anymore, I am constantly on edge that they are going to cancel my surgery and / or il loose my. 2500 deposit. I got a call today saying they’ve lost my pre op pics ( my op is in 2 weeks) and they need them due to guidelines or they won’t be able to operate – could I come down within the next 2 days.. I just can’t due to working full time! They already moved my date from the 10th to the 9th after I was originally told the 9th was full, so I panic a little bit that it’s been over booked after researching and looking into things even more this evening it’s apparently common they over book and cancel people for tiny reasons. My PC then rang me and said they wouldn’t cancel an ap over that but I think it was said to settle me as I had quite a moan about it. The girl previously surely wouldn’t of said it if she didn’t mean it … It was so hard for me to get the time off work and I can’t bare it being cancelled when I have spent so much time making sure all my letters were there for my pre op; consultant letter ( as I have crohns) and gp letter and I’ve come off my treatment for it .. I just really can’t get excited anymore and the reassurance seems quite false as if I’m just annoying them. I’m paying 5000 yet feel annoying when I send the odd email.. Major rant tonight just such a bad feeling all will fall through. X

I’ve always stuck to this forum but going outside of it on things like facebook etc it’s a whole other world of negativity and advising to stay away from MYA, major panic mode 🙁

Hi!
That’s really dreadful. If I were you I’d kick up a royal fuss and get them to clarify how they lost the pictures… Especially if it were a paper copy!
Do you have a white wall, maybe you could offer to take your own pre-op pictures at home and email them through?
Bit of a side note, but I’m really sorry to hear you have Crohn’s. I know a lot of people who have it and I really hope it behaves itself while you’re in recovery.
Wishing you all the luck, hope MYA get their act together for you xx

Hi Chris,
They’ve said at first they thought they wernt taken as they were not on the system, but now they think it’s a technical problem so have a team onto it in the morning, but I don’t feel reassured in the slightest now I’ve been told something as simple as pictures could cancel my op and then being told by someone else it can’t. I’m nervous after everything I’ve read now about cancellations and loosing money etc etc!! And the fact I’m looking back and realising they moved me to a date that was originally full. I have obviously read a lot after today and got myself overly worked up! I just couldn’t believe how I felt I was made to feel like it was my fault at first like well yeah we need the pictures .. Well I didn’t spend hours waiting for my pre op and then ages in my pre op for me to have to take more time off work for them etc. They never mentioned me taking them as an option but hopefully they get in touch and give me options rather than me being told last minute! 🙁

Thanks for your kind words about the crohns !! I’m hoping for the best, I’m glad my surgeon has recently done someone on the same meds as me etc!!! Xxxxxx

Jeeez… They have been rubbish for you, haven’t they?
Can I ask clinic are you with?
I’ve been so lucky so far, my pc has been fab, never kept waiting more than 20 mins and the few times I’ve tried to contact them they’ve been helpful and quick to reply. I guess it’s like any job, some people are better at it than others, sometimes people have bad/busy days.. Whatever caused it though, never nice to be the one suffering due to someone else’s incompetence.

I’m sure they won’t cancel on you. Better off thinking you won’t for now so you don’t drive yourself mad!

That’s good about the doc having experience with your meds though, I bet that made you feel better (before all this happened!)
Crohns seems to be getting more and more common, so if MYA did mess everything up I’m sure you could find another surgeon with that experience. X

I mean they were having an off day, not you! 🙂 You’re totally justified.
Hah, no, I’ve read awful stories about boob jobs gone wrong, didn’t wanna torture myself with specifics about MYA! You’re braver than me! Glad you calmed down xx

Hi Hannah, could you take your own photos and email them directly to your PC or Surgeon?

I haven’t even bothered looking at boob jobs gone wrong, the amount of times the surgeons MYA have performed a BA is unreal so no mistakes or mishaps should happen. The amount of praise the surgeons get on this forum is amazing, surely if they weren’t amazi g at what they do then there’d be much more negativity on here too.

I hope that you get everything sorted and that you’re ok after surgery X.

Hi Hannah, who was your PC im with the Manchester clinic and Leanne is my PC, I have heard lots of stories about peoples being cancelled, they fit me in on the 25th of August after a cancellation. xxx

My surgery was booked for yesterday but I was postponed the night before due to incificient medical history given by my gp. I’ve been non stop for 2 days with emails and phonecalls chasing all the extra paperwork up. This place, that place for a minor blip from 3 years ago that needs further investigation. It is disheartening but I’m currently waiting for the go ahead from head office. Hopefully I won’t have to wait much longer as I’m already 2 days behind schedule with regards to childcare, work commitments and so forth. Fingers crossed for you and me! Xx
