My gp referred me to neurologist in 2017. They replied saying they won't see me until I have tried everything. In February I went to my gp. She said to increase the dose one more time of the medication I was on then. If that doesn't work then she will refer me. Then covid happened so no chance of a referral. I have been asking my gp since then and they keep saying no point at the moment because I will be waiting a least a year. One go wrote me a letter for me to self refer to private. I've booked an appointment at end of August but it's £250. I booked it will the hope I can then be transferred to NHS. But part of me is asking should I be seeing a physciatrist instead. I really don't know. The MRI is on NHS so will see what that says then I shall decide.
I've got to the stage that I dread going to bed because I struggle with sleep but then I hate waking up because I don't want to face the day.
