Diep Flap
I wanted to post a positive experience about having a reconstruction done via diep flap. I had a lumpectomy where the lower portion - a good portion - of my right breast was removed in April 2010. ...
Hi, I had a free diep flap operation last year after being on the waiting list for a year, it went really well and I had two follow up appointments. At the second one my PS said he wanted to see me in 3 months, that would have been November, it's now nearly 6 months and I haven't had a letter. I've phoned several times and the last time I was told that he's very busy and I'm on a waiting list again, is that right, do you go back on the waiting list for follow up appointments? I can't afford private and I've been really well looked after in the state system but I think I've slipped through the net. Anyone else experience this? Thanks, Viv
