Answers:
A lot usually depends upon whether they consider it important for your son to have his tonsils removed or if they consider it will only improve his life to a certain extent!. The cases that are more immediate go first so you could be in for a long wait!.

I would perhaps press the hospital for a bit more information as they may be able to give you a bit more of an idea as to how long!. They would have a rough idea as they are dealing with this waiting game all the time!.

I had a friend who had to have a hysterectomy and she waited for over a year!. She had a growth which was about the size of an orange when first diagnosed and by the time they operated it was the size of a basketball!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

it really all depends on what the hospital has had booked in, and yeah they can call you and tell you to come asapWww@Answer-Health@Com
