tests

[Uglow]

I had test done at Gp and then took results to rheumatologist. Tbh he just told me to carry on with pred and then when my nhs appointment came about low and behold same rheumatologist

I tbh got way more understanding of polymyalgia from this site.

I have seen four rheumatologists, two private and two NHS. Just one was any good and she worked for the NHS.

I’ve seen one in the US when I was diagnosed on holiday who was amazing, very knowledgeable, concerned, but very clear as to what treatment I should receive when back home in UK. However, I’m afraid I saw the one here privately as I’m still waiting to see him on NHS after 6 months, and he was nowhere near as good.

Now I’ve booked to see another one privately next week and hoping I get under someone’s care as my GP’s not interested at all. Very disappointed and weary of struggling.

I hope that you have a good one this time. I cannot believe how bad some doctors are!!
