Justine13 264 Posted September 4, 2012 I had six months of NUT appts- so when I have surgery on the 12 th it will be 7 months Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chad2rad 491 Posted September 4, 2012 Six months seems common from initial to scheduled procedure. There is preop testing and that may take a little time to complete besides insurance. Could of done it in four months but Aug was too full. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
