Hope for us all

I went to my GP yesterday as I am due my first 12 week B12 injection after my loading doses. I told him that the injections had helped the burning in my legs and asked him if I could have the injection every 8 weeks. His response was "I have a lady who has them every month if you would like to try that" . You could have knocked me down with a feather! Especially after I asked my fathers ( whos neurological symptoms are severe) GP at the same surgery and was refused a few weeks ago

Well done you! Lets be thankful that at least one person is getting the treatment we all should

[fbirder]

That's great. Let's hope he tells all his GP friends.

I'm so pleased for you Debbie! How bizarre that your father can't get good treatment at the same practise-All the very best.

Yea! Maybe Dad will have to change Doctors!

His GP has been brilliant in every other way He has just had scan colonoscopy faecal and blood tests and seen a gastroenterologist, all done within 3 weeks of seeing her. mine has taken 13 months for the same. Swings and roundabouts

I guess it is just a matter of being an advocate for your Dad. Good luck.

Wow, like fbirder I hope he tells his colleagues.
