Hi Clay, I’d be interested to know why you need it reading … and if you find anyone.

I’m also in the North West and have a disc of my MRI scan - but I can’t understand it, I have been waiting 3 months to get my actual results from my endo specialist!

Hi, I've been in pain everyday for about 18 months and I'm on a waiting list to be seen by an endo specialist. I can't take the pain for another year which is my expected waiting time 🙄. So I want to just pay to see someone but I've read that only some specialists are actually good at finding endo on scans, I think I worded my question wrong. Thanks I hope they get back to you soon

Hi. Sorry to hear you’re struggling, I may be wrong but i would imagine it’s the radiologist that would analyse the scans - not the Endo specialist.

I can recommend things that help me with my pain - keep up regular exercise, eat a gluten free diet and cut out processed and sugary foods.

Take care x
