Hiya if this helps AT all I have JUST had my dater for April 11th after having my previous op on Jan 9th!

I made 14 phone calls to my consultant and after 5 weeks had a reply in Feb to say as bed situation is so bad it may be month's. They first operate on cancer patients then emergencies then routine patients on a list basis.

I decided to e mail my own GP who sent my e mail directly to my consultant.within a week I got my date.

I must add I have been waiting since last May when I was 1st consulted.

Thanks for your reply Sammy - I have got my date now = 21st April - I hope it's not cancelled! It's really frustrating when you just want fixed. There's no hard and fast rule to how long you wait in the UK - every area is different - and there's the type of hysterectomy and why you are having it.  I hope your operation goes well and have a fast recovery!
