I had a cardiac MRI on 27/1. It is now 2/4. I have no result. I have chased this twice with the BRI
consultant who ordered the scan and have emailed Pals. Only had 2 automated emails from Pals saying they are very busy and will be in touch. 27/1 to 2/4 (and ongoing) is a totally unacceptable time to wait for the result of a scan. (4 months had already been spent waiting for the scan and 7 months before that for the consultant appointment). I have a rare condition (which can have serious heart implications) - only affecting females. Nevertheless, I should not have to put up with this. My follow-up appointment with the consultant is already a month overdue, probably delayed because there is no scan result, although I have been given no explanation. It is the lack
of communication which is particularly bad: I simply have no idea why the scan result has not been forthcoming, or when I can expect it.
My concerns are valid and expecting a scan result (or at least an explanation) after this length of time is entirely reasonable. Therefore I hope there will be no attempt to criticise me or put me in the wrong for leaving this valid review.
