Hi Gypsy
I had my drilling op on the 18th Nov. I had a general Anesthetic I went into hospital at 8am and was out at 6pm the same day. The nurse said if I could eat something and keep it down and visit the loo then I could go home. They gave me a sick note for two weeks, I thought it was too long to have off work but Im glad they gave me it as ive been very sore!!
I did'nt have to wait for af to arrive before drilling. The one thing that embarraced me was that before the op you have to do a water sample to make sure that you are not pg, but no matter how much i tried (taps running) I could'nt do it:o
Sorry cant help you with the BUPA thing
