Hiya,
Just to let you know that I went to see a different GP today about lots of things.
Told him about the lump in my neck that I've had for over 2yrs-too long a story-he's referring me to ENT. To get lots of bloods done next week. Also, mentioned the numbness in my arms, hands and fingers. He gave me a proper examination and then said he was referring me to an Orthopaedic consultant to look at my neck. Felt good that he didn't dismiss me with the old 'it must be your fibromyalgia' thing.
No doubt I'll be waiting a while but I don't mind,
