    Hi GG, yeah 3yrs is a long time to wait on the NHS. I ended up getting a loan out to pay for my surgery, went with Tescos loans and only have to pay 6.8% APR so its quite cheap compared to other loan companies. I wouldn't say the pain is too much. its more soreness and aching than pain. Its only my second day out of surgery and i managed to pop to the shops today, went to boots and found some liquid Multivitamins. But the shoulder pain from the gas is the worst part of it. Its surprising how quickly you'll get up and start walking around etc... Good luck and i hope things work out for you. Jules xxxxxxx

    'why go abroad'???

    Hi Kerri, I went with WGA and they were great, staff were lovely and friendly and like was said already said we could call anytime with questions etc.... I got banded on saturday and so far so good, i'm sore but the trapped wind is the worst bit. when I was there i got very nervous but then once i checked into my own room and met some of the other 7 patients who were having the same proceedure done that day i realised how routinely this surgery was done there and how well practised which but my mine at rest. I had to be there for 7am and ended up being on the end of the list so had my surgery last at 4.30 but the day went quickly. If you want to ask anymore questions about WGA please feel free to ask and if i know the answer i will try and help. btw i'll be having all my fills in Cardiff which is a bit closer to home.
