They don't, one ccg can't look up another ccg data. A brompton pah consultant rang and said We need to see you. She knows the trip would be difficult for me so suggested a joint clinic they are holding with southampton.ok i said. I've ttwo appointments at southampton in january, an echo and an appointment with a resp consultant. I rang and they said No brompton staff noted but we liaise with the brompton. So does my consultant in chichester whom I'm seeing at the beginning of january.

It's bonkers, particularly a 100 mile round trip for an echo when st richards chichester is 5 miles away.

I wish the labour nhs wide documentation system had gone ahead.

They have form. I was told to go to the brompton for tests for sildenafil. Hospital transport at 5am, they sat me in a chair and measured my blood pressure once an hour. Nice lunch though. They tried again with macitentan. After some fuss i sat in a chair in chichester and had my blood pressure monitored. I had a brain operation in southampton. Later they asked down for for an ecg. It was actually a field of view test! Very annoying and a waste of cash
