Urine Retention - GP Refuses Specialist Referral

[Patient_PG]

I have a very unusual medical condition known as Cauda Equina Slow Onset or CES-R which can cause urine retention/leaks, repeat UTIs, bowel disruption, weak foot. The cause is suspected to be CES nerve impingement. I need the cause of urine retention to be investigated and CAUTI treatment to be considered. (Catheter Associated UTIs.)

Two urologists have suggested a Urodynamics Scan and raised the CAUTI issue. My GP refuses to make a referral and I cannot find another GP in this area.

The NHS complaints procedure is failing me and many of the 40,000 other similarly patients.
