"I just want to get my life back on track"

GP attempted to refer me to dermatology in October 2021 but was unable to as dermatology weren't accepting referrals. This continued for another 2 years until October 2023 when I was finally able to get a referral.

Since then, I've heard absolutely nothing, my GP has confirmed that a referral has been made but can't tell me anything else. I must commend my GP for providing as much care as she can while I wait though, even if the treatments available from her aren't working that well.

So far 2 years and 8 months waiting to be seen for psoriasis that affects high-impact areas, causes pain, limits what I can do, isn't controlled well by the treatments my GP can provide and keeps getting worse as time goes on.

Judging by the waiting times report I have another 16 months to wait (possibly more!). 4+ years to be seen, if at all. I just want to get my life back on track and this is a major hold-up.
