Thanks. Just been told there is a 30 month waiting list to see a dermatologist here in Northern Trust so I'll have to go private. Ridiculous. Hopefully it not lupus but 30 months is way too long to find out!

My son who has lupus has joint care between dr Riddle who is a rheumatologist and a dr okane dermatologist, his care has been excellent and he only waited 4-5 months for the referral to come through. Good luck with everything, maybe your gp could mark it urgent and do necessary bloods so they would be available on the system. 🌸
