Busy few days, Charlie and I went to Oxford for my orthapeadic appointment yesterday. Quite a bizarre experience as I was the only person in the waiting room under the age of 65! Bit of a delay as the consultant had been called out of clinic twice but we got there in the end.
Doc not sure exactly what is wrong with my knees but believes there is some kind of problem with the cartilage in my knee, the knee cap and my femur in both legs. So, I'll be having an MRI (how many of those can one person have in their lifetime?) and then arthroscopic surgery on both knees.
I did think about telling him that I need it all done before August because of starting IVF then, but didn't. If the wait is too long then I'll have to go private so it's all done before then. I was re-joined to the company scheme last month, so I'm not too sure if they'll cover me for it - hopefully they will, the only exclusion showing on my certificate is for my endo and Charlie's psoriasis. In any event, I will probably ask to go to the private hospital anyway to free up NHS resources/slots.
Into the office today and stock deliveries today and yesterday which took some sorting out. Spent a fair amount of time quite late last night writing out descriptions and uploading it to eBay. The yellow fairy dolls are so gorgeous - makes me broody for a girl!
Now settled down for the Apprentice and Armstrongs again. I do love Wednesdays nights.

Going private is a good idea if you want it all finished before August..the last thing you want is stress about your knee surgery leading up to the beginning of IVF. The more control you have over the surgery the better..good luck!!
