i wont be booking any more private appointments after this cos its costing me 170 quid

who knows i might learn a bit more

im now thinking where do i start like telling him had this twice befor and cleared it using my own phission at the pool then it just came back after 7 years with a vengance and list all my aches and where they started first then next place it started

does this seem a good idea to you.

John, sit down and write down everything you want to ask as you are likely to forget something,i know i would. It doesn't matter how trivial they seem they will then be answered. As your going private you want your moneys worth. sylvi...

dont bank on it allanah must people i have met apart from the knee specialist i would not trust with shapening a pencil so far

Echo everything that's been said and I hope that your private consultant can diagnose your problem along with reverting you back under the NHS.

thanks georrje you must have met them to

I think that writing all the history down is a great idea John, no matter how trivial it seems, it may be a great pointer for the consultant.

Good luck with it.

I second (third/fourth etc) whats already been said. Take notes plus note of the meds you are taking (always saves them time and in this case, your money!)

£170 will hopefully be well spent if you get a better diagnosis and/or more information on everything. Even if their dignosis is the same as you have already had a second opinion should make sure your treatment goes down the right path.

Hope you enjoy your weekend on your own, have a nice one
