Never asked before,could really do with some words and hugs.

You've just reminded me of this classic...



...

So where do you go from here then? Wouldn't the consultant have raised the possibility of things if the evidence was there? Does the nerve damage point away from what you were worried about? Did he feel the need for further tests or did he think whatever is going on isn't neuro in origin?

Know what you mean about the hospital. Until they rebuilt ours we had a newer bit at the front and then those old concrete tunnels that made it look like an old asylum. Kept expecting to see the nurses dressed like Florence Nightingale.

Lol

I really don't know Terry. The Consultant doing the NCS is just a specialist in doing those tests, he was a Consultant neurophysiologist. It's shown some nerve damage so i suppose i've got to wait for the report to go to the Neurologist, with this and my brain MRI findings i hope they can piece everything together.

I'm dealing with this on top of being referred to have my gallbladder out and my hernia done. The 1st surgical registrar saying yes to meeting a second surgical registrar saying no, ****! The 2nd registrars reasons were my hernia doesn't hurt and it does and my gallbladders not coming out because i've not had biliary colic when to be honest i think i have. I had a severe pain all day yesterday and my Mrs reminded me yesterday that in the summer of 2016 i just threw up out of nowhere. I got re-referred back the gastro by the surgical team in April and my appt is Nov, should have been Sept but it got cancelled to Nov making it a 7 month wait. I'm living in pain and have a high pain threshold but i'm sure most people would strart going to A&E.

My conclusion is the NHS has no money, it's got worse under these Tory WA#KERS and if you can manage they don't give a .........

All i'm doing is following what i'm told. When the Gastro asked my GP to refer me to have my gallbladder out my GP said to me "so would you like your gallbladder out?' What a tw#t! Like it's an honour to get treatment. I said to him well not really, but if it's going to make me well again and that's what the gastro said, T#AT. I've never had a violent bone in me but i could of punched him!!

Now you can imagine what all this is doing to somebody with anxiety!

Are they moving away from an MS diagnosis, Matt?

I really don't know Pulisa. The Consultant doing the tests was a Neurophysiologist not a Neurologist and could only tell me what the NCS showed. I feel like screaming or just asking my cat.

I'm trying not to burden my Partner with it all. She's still working a few hrs a week, i've turned down 3 job offers in the last 6 months. It makes me feel guilty as i want to get back to work so she doesn't have to.

Deal!!!!! My GP would be choice. A golf clubbing 1st though! You can work on the ankles, knees, balls and hips. I'll do the ribs, elbows, shoulders, fingers, teeth and nose.

We will have to catch him on his own, it might by hard as he's Iranian, so probably has 7 wives to keep him busy! Lol!

[starlit_galaxies]

*hugs* I'm so sorry about everything. I hope you start to feel better soon.

Well after getting referred to have my gallbladder out and the surgery team saying no, getting referred back to the gastro 6 months ago, my appt for Sept got cancelled and changed to November, then a letter turns up Saturday changing it to today.

What a well oiled machine our healthcare system is!! As the letter states missed appts cost the NHS £190 but they cancel time and again themselves and this latest one is good for me as i can make it but getting a letter on a Saturday for an appt Tues when if i couldn't make it would have been wasted as you couldn't phone until the Monday! TITS!

I've asked my Dad to cone with me as he knows the situation and although i don't or didn't have a temper until this all started i'm scared i'll chuck the consultant out the window! Lol
