Just after a bit of advice if possible. I absolutely understand how busy the nhs hospital etc are hence why I’m asking a question on here(I’ve also an operation cancelled after waiting 8 years for it, nothing do do with ataxia or neurological)
I saw my neurologist at the beginning of nov, he said he wanted to see me in between 4-6 months, it’s normally every 6 months but I’ve not been very well lately. I do normally have to ring the hospital up a month before I’m due to see him, to inquire about an appointment & they normally give me one then. Long gone are the days where it was an appointment automatically came through the post.
As I said Its now nearly 5 months after seeing him, but am unsure wether to ring the hospital to see about an appointment or not, as I said long gone are the days of an appointment just turning up, if I don’t ring I don’t get an appointment, but I don’t know if they’ll be doing clinical appointments or not, but am terrified of being forgotten as the staff once left me 18 months before they gave me an appointment & when would the right time be to ring up? I don’t want to be a pest to them & in the past 1 or 2 have been extremely rude to me, which has made me extremely reluctant to ring them now, I normally have to build myself up a couple if days then force myself to ring in the end.
I hate to make a fuss but he’s the only one who seems to understand the pain & give me the right medication.
