After my septoplasty on 21st May I received a follow up appointment for 6th July. 2days after getting the letter I got a call saying this had been changed to 3rd June. Today. No one knew why it was changed. So today I sat in front of a doctor who thought I'd had my surgery 6weeks ago & showed surprise when I explained it was 2weeks ago. All seemed well with the examination that followed & they told me to keep using the nasal wash. What nasal wash? I hadn't been given anything other than antibiotics when I left the ward. The doctor was supposed at this too. They went & got a leaflet showing what I needed& said Boots would have it. It's not available on prescription so it's cost me £16.99.Had to order it so will finally get what I should have been using for 2weeks tomorrow. Still, lucky the July appointment was changed or I would never have know. Every cloud eh?
