That was the only downside, the fkn price....cost me $6k at a private hospital. I enquired about getting it done at a public hospital and was told to expect 18 month wait. The sinus was having a major effect on my hearing....I was having lot of trouble hearing things, so no way I was gonna wait that long.
I've since joined private health fund....after the horse had already bolted lol.
But I'm just glad to be back to normal, so I dont give the cost a second thought anymore.
