Well exactly 2 weeks ago today I went to see my doctor and when I got home this evening there was a letter from the PCT saying I'd been accepted and I just need to pick my hospital out of the ones they listed (all two of them )

Thank you all so much for the information and support.  I know this is just the start of a very long journey but I am so excited about it.

On the NHS???   Wowee! That's great!  Lucky you! A friend in my PCT area has just been turned down as she "only" had a BMI of 41 BuT she has serious other health issues like she has major hip and leg problems which mean that when she is overweight she can hardly walk.

Which surgery type? You probably said in an earlier post but i have forgotten.

PS - get in there FAST in case the forthcoming budget cuts bite too hard!!! I know the NHS is supposed to be exempt but...!
