Hi ronnIa, I've just joined this group and am looking for people from uk or Ireland to talk to. I actually didn't realise there was a uk forum -doh- my surgery is provisionally booked for 12july in brussels - feeling slightly scared now cos it's actually going to happen. Have you had any problems so far. There are some scary stories out there - I didn't realise about the burping and hiccuping and wind pains and the rest!
