How long does it take from the letter of knowing you're in for 3 weeks rehab and finding out the date you're admitted

I'm going down for a Physio assessment tomorrow morning, eleven o'clock in the physiotherapy section at stanmore. Glad you got your date and thanks to the tip on asking to be poured on the cancellation list, when I go of my assessment next Friday I will mention that.

Hope he goes very well for both of you and that you gain much from the experience and the help. Keep me posted on any useful information or may be run into you around the Physio part

Everyone has been great today. Am in a lot of pain now. The male wing of the ward is roasting hot! I am drinking plenty but still feeling rather dizzy. Got a lot of things to work on.

sleep well sheppey, I hope tomorrow is a good day too. hopefully the aches will sort themselves out. if you feel dizzy see if you can lie down and ask for a fan to cool you down, the pots is probably rebelling!
