Asked the same questions twice.

A&E
July 22, 2024
I went with a cut on my hand and was asked to fill in an online form about what happened. I took me 15 minutes to fill in the form. To my surprise when I was called in to be examined the nurse asked me exactly the same questions again.

I haven't had a follow up in 3 years

July 17, 2024
I saw a consultant 3 years ago for ataxia and they haven't followed up since. I feel like my condition has plateaued and the appointment was more about taking notes than than actual care.

A long wait for referrals and medication

Neurology
July 17, 2024
They have a minimum requirement at neurology headache clinic and they accepted my referral. They did a telephone appointment in October 2023 after being asked to be referred May 2022. It was helpful but I had to wait for medication as they didn't have it. A 6 month wait for medication after my initial consultation.
