Get a second opinion from another Dr. Cheapest way. Good luck.

Hi Billy

This isn't the first time I've been about these symptoms. Previous drs have blamed it on everything from anxiety to asthma. I saw a nurse practitioner a week ago and she did a pathetic neuro exam and listened to my chest. She said oh you still have strength in your muscles and said we will refer you to neurology but it will likely be a 3-4 month wait. At this rate I wont be around then. They seem to think having normal blood tests results and being under a certain age means you're fine. I'm not going back to my surgery 

Hi

Sorry to hear that you are not being taken seriously and the anxiety this is causing you

I have had similar problems and being made to wait a long time and told certain tests etc are not necessary.

I am a single mum with 2 kids and very scared.

A lot of my issues are being blamed on anxiety including severe burning pain which I'm pretty sure I can't conjour up in my head!

We are lucky to have our health service I know but when you feel you are not taken seriously it is very upsetting and stressful

Good luck and I hope you get answers soon

Sorry to hear this if I was in your shoes go get second  opinion   or go to a and e  I no thy be bissy but I'm sure thy will  advise u of your concerns

I'm seeing a specialist privately on Friday so hopefully scans will follow. I've been to a&e so many times and get nowhere because they say I'm not at deaths door so it's not enough to keep me in 

Hello Sparkles84,

                          l hope your visit to the specialist will throw some light upon the cause of your problems and if it is not cancer can identify something else, because it is obvious you are both upset and concerned.

                     The two things struck me reading your post was that people always underestimate the bodys reactions to stress and anxiety and how far a viscious cycle of such can trigger all manner of symptoms.The second was the term blatant negligence would only be appropiate if they failed to spot active cancer,or another condition that had similar outward signs.

                                                                                                        l would suggest that it is really important to inform the specialist all your relevant symptoms at the consultation,and knowing how easy it is to get sidetracked in conversation and miss things out, l would suggest you have a prepared written list detailing all your symptoms which you can hand to them,  providing a focused start point and ensuring maximum benefit from an expensive option

                                                                                                        l hope it provides answers and helps with your obvious distress,

                                             David
