Story/journey with symptoms/imaging, 3d, help please

Let me guess, good old UK NHS?
You should issue a formal complaint.
It is about time these GPs started working properly and looking after people.

I’m so sorry that even your pressing the doctor produced no results beyond the limited help she gave. SOOOO FRUSTRATING! :enraged_face: Makes me just want to shake them awake!! Is there an ENT, maxillofacial or some other specialty that’s a skull based specialist you can see to discuss your theory?

Hi @Isaiah_40_31 - I have no faith in our local ENT consultants who told me it was not an ENT problem! I will see if I can speak to the MSK guy who referred me to neurosurgeon and lay out my fears of upcoming cervical spine surgery with ongoing background infection in the area. I will also email PALS (patient liaison service) and complain although I have doubts they are anything other than a PR service to protect the Trust. I’m so cynical now, such a negative attitude to have and I miss that happy, joking, laughing person I used to be :sad_but_relieved_face:

Hi @ markp - yes you’ve got it in one! I’ve booked a phone consultation with JH to see what he thinks. Did you see him at some point?

I’m so sorry that nobody is listening to you, and so wrong to have to pay privately for advice…I’m very cynical too about the NHS, hearing so many ridiculous stories :enraged_face:

It’s dreadful that decisions are made on targets, no patient choice any more, worse than ever @Jules. Even private us seen as a cash cow :sad_but_relieved_face:

It’s a posterior fusion of c1/2 - not ES surgery at all. X
