Hi I know exactly how you are feeling. I was referred on 21/7 and still waiting for an appointment m. I called GP again yesterday and she provided the hospital number to have me chase them up. 
Right now I’m waiting for a call back. Part of me is desperate to be seen but I am also terrified of what might be ahead.

I really hope we both get appointments soon but the lovely ladies and support on here is great so keep posting!

Hi Pauline 

thank you for replying.

I have chased mine also but I get told varying things by each person. 

It’s a horrid waiting game isn’t it - fingers crossed you hear soon .

Thanks so much for replying. I am such a state with the worry of this now. I also get different responses but have got a GP appointment again tomorrow afternoon. If I haven’t heard by then I’m hoping she can get things moving.

Let me know if you hear anything. What a rotten time for us x

HI QuietlyConcerned,

A very warm welcome to our forum.

I am sorry to hear that you are having such a long wait for your appointment and hope that you get an appointment through soon. Try to find a pastime to help take your mind off this all consuming wait. Unfortunately, there's nothing we can do to speed things up, but we are always here for you and we know the need to vent all too well.

Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on.

 We are always here for you.

Kind regards,

Jolamine xx

I’ve found as time has gone on the more it is over taking my thoughts. 
This is now leading into the 5th week of waiting - annoyingly I have been off work for the summer holidays which has meant my mind isn’t as busy as it usually would be.

hopefully your GP may be able to move things forward for you. 

Hi QuietlyConcerned,

As soon as I read your post, I thought that it was a pity that you weren't at work just now. Even doing something as mundane as a jigsaw, can help for a short while.

Kind regards,

This is the place and space in which to vent. I do hope you will hear something soon.

I do hope you will hear something soon. I understand about being terrified.

I’ve contacted my GP today, who have chased the referral. However, they are now saying it could be 6 weeks until I receive an appointment. 

I feel selfish saying this but I really do feel let down. 
When I didn’t get an appointment at 2 weeks I was told 4. Then 5 and now I am almost 5 weeks I’m being told I won’t hear until atleast 6 weeks. It seems utterly horrid that the system is so backlogged that wait times are so wildly out of line. 

I feel utterly deflated.
