I also waited 2 months for surgery from diagnosis. If I had known upfront how drawn out the process is at the Austin I would have never gone there in the first place. Too bad they have all the extra stuff like a grand piano and roving musicians to entertain those waiting for treatment at the ONJ, but all I wanted was timely treatment. Can you go closer to home? I do get a bit angry when I hear the same is happening to others when trying to get treatment at the Austin.
It is such a busy place and so noisy with roving musicians and people playing on the grand piano in the waiting lounge and buzzers going off left right and centre. But if they don't have the ONJ donations then they don't have the extra funds needed to research more, and admittedly the Austin have a lot of funding thrown at them because they keep the ONJ Wellness Centre going. Truly I never found it a peaceful time waiting there. I hope you get your surgery soon, or can you change to a closer hospital?
Take care and I wish you well. xx
