I have at last got a date for this. 2nd December.
Very annoyed about the long wait. I was told 6 weeks from the referral. I saw my consultant on 23 of July. At the beginning of Sept I hadn't heard anything so I chased his secretary. I had injections in the wrist and elbow in April, they thought he had given them to me in July. What are they doing in that department - don't they keep notes. Good job I do. If the referral had gone out in July, I would not now be having to wait until 2nd December. They seem to like keeping us in pain.
Well, I've had my moan, someone elses now.

    Hello, What an awful wait! I didn't realise how lucky I was. Seems like things are slipping back with hospitals and waiting times. :?
    Take care, Love Sue

    Hi, Could you ring and ask if you can have a short notice cancellation? I don't know if they do that where you are, or if its possilbe for you to do, but it may get you seen sooner.

    Love Sue

    I always believe in writing to your MP
    When things get as mess up as this go to your MP. That's what we votethem in for.. Let them earn their expenses. Or Just do a bit of jumping up and down yourself to them. Everyone needs a good shake up and your the only person to do it.
