I despair. My grandad was diagnosed with pa too late, he was diagnosed after collapsing at Christmas. The neurological damage was already done and could not be reversed. I worry so much that this condition is not treated with the respect it deserves. I tried to get an appointment for my b12 injection and heard a gp in the background saying it is not critical to get the b12 injection on the day it was due. My response to the receptionist was that it is critical for me. Keep up the good fight until medics recognise how serious this illness is to those that have it. Happy Xmas to one and all x
