Hi there

Yes my appointment was cancelled with dr Trivedi in March. Then had a call from my gastrolagist locally to come and get my bloods done as she had a email from him. Not had bloods since January after stopping the seladelpar trial. Not had scan since last July and was told I have cirrhosis. These are ver difficult times indeed especially if you have a illness anyway.

Hi Cavi, my app should of been next Wednesday and has been put back to February next year for some reason. So I'm concerned I'm not having my bloods check for 14 months for when I went the QE last Autumn. Perhaps they will contact my GP also.

My QE appointment in March was changed by letter to June. Then another letter has changed it to September.

I have had no contact with the clinic since my last appointment in October 2019. Luckily I am feeling pretty good , just hope my next blood results are good too!

hi yes my appointments have been rearranged i had a nurse from my gp surgery come to my hometo take bloods

my consultant from the QE also rang to see if i was ok and to reassure me that my bloods etc will still be being monitored and if i cant get meds to call they will send them out through the post

Hi I had my appt cancelled for may and just sent a new one for September. Haven't had any bloods done since early January. My meds were sent down by post, that was incredibly efficient, rang on the Monday and they were here on the weds.

I had my April appointment cancelled and rescheduled for July. That has now been cancelled and replaced with a telephone appointment in mid June. A consultant rang me in April to see if I was ok and organised medication to be sent as I had previously had difficulty getting one item locally. He advised me not to have a nurse come to the house to take blood as I am shielding and blood tests have been normal for 2years. He said wait till I go to clinic in July. As that is not happening now the GP is arranging for me to have blood tests before telephone appt. I’m not aware that QE have been in touch with GP.
