Am sorry to hear that you are struggling. There are 3 centres in the UK that are "Centres of Excellence" and your GP (or dentist / optician) can refer you to the one which is closest to you if you have Behcet's or suspected Behcet's Disease and they are in London, Liverpool and Birmingham. There is lots of information about this on the Behcet's Syndrome Society website. You may find some of the medical factsheets on there helpful to you too. If you can not get to a COE there are other bigger teaching hospitals where there are Consultants with a specialist knowledge of Behcet's. Hope this helps.
p.s just a tip - I don't think you locked your question with the privacy button - it's not a huge problem. It's just that if you post again (especially if it's a more personal thing) you're more likely to get more responses. Also people outside this forum can see / access what you have written when you don't make it private!
thankyou ever so much 4 this infro see i live in devon and i saw my nero this mornin and he didnt have a clue about this disease i will speak to my doc many thank kym x
Hi
I live in Devon too and go to the London COE as my son lives there. I find the train connection convenient. I kow another Devon Behcet 'survivor' has opted to go to Birmingham as her husband takes her in the car and driving through London to the Eastend would be a nightmare!
Definately a good move to get a referral - your GP can do this.best to do as soon as possible as there are some waiting times building up. It does not cost GP or hospital anything to refer you.
Best wishes
Sian
As usual, it all depends on where you live. I am only 35 miles from London, but am treated at Addenbrookes Hospital, Cambridge where there is a dedicated clinic for all sorts of vasculitis. I could not have better treatment. I think that is where you would be sent if you lived anywhere in the East Anglia region.
well am in the devon /plymouth area hun
There are several folk in the Plymouth area and while some travel to the centres, others are very happy with local treatment. If you are on Facebook, do message me so I can connect you.
