Hi
I am currently waiting for an appointment for a colonoscopy. I was quite shocked to learn that if I test positive for covid before then I will have to wait 90 days for the procedure.
Is this standard practice ?
thanks
Unfortunately I heard something similar. Hopefully that will change .
Our helpline staff have have all the up to date covid information and might be worthwhile giving them a call . 0808 808 0000,
I was really surprised by it but they will know who it applies to and always best to check it out .
Take care ,
