• Pip. I have seen a total of seven doctors. Only the last two knew what they were on about. It should have been treated ages ago. The other doctors were saying that it should be left for a year or so and it might just go away. Apparently it would not have gone away but the internal scarring would have become greater and the problem more ingrained. Anyway, I have paid for BUPA for years. It is necessary as I cannot just drop everything to have an operation but need, where possible, to schedule these things around work. Today BUPA said they would pay for everything and so I am happy. Private hospitals are also a little nicer if you get stuck in them for a few days. It is easier to deal with work calls etc. There also have wireless internet but I was not really up to using that on my last visit.

    Sagas like this seem all too common, unfortunately--it happened to me a few years ago. Little is quite as frustrating as that.
