Just phoned around on two particular Endo's that were recommended to me and I have a private appointment tomorrow evening!!!!! Only half an hour again but so not to eat into any of my time with him I am busy emailing over to his Secretary lots of test results and also a bit of a blog on what has been happening the last 5 months. Hope to God he can help me!

Hope - keeps us going. :)

Please don't get too excited. I have been down that road spending lots of money on private specialists and they were just as useless as NHS

I understand Blue but at least I have managed to get to see someone really quickly that has a really good reputation and came highly recommended. If it doesn't work out with him then I can move to the other recommended one

Jefner,

Great to email previous medical history ahead of your visit. (I do that).

However keep it short .. bullet points so as not to overwhelm him.

The important part is now.

Lots of luck, Flower
