Thank you, Wendy. Those who already know are reminded and those who don't know are educated.

My pleasure. I was misdiagnosed (despite constantly informing my GP of her error) and mistreated. She refused to allow me to have my rights to options for diagnosis, a referral and choice of consultant, etc. When I see the pages here, I am shocked to see this kind of injustice was not just a prolonged suffering for me but for so many others. Being badly treated whilst in pain and disabled, concerned and anxious, is beyond what should be expected of 'professional medical care'. All patients have rights! As a community we have power to bring about change. It can happen. adviceguide.org.uk/england/...
