"Chronic pain and neurological issue"

In March I had a sore back and tight calves. I went to the doctors and was told it was a pulled muscle. As the months went passed the pain got worse and spread. I kept going to the doctors and saw 6 doctors and was told it was a pulled muscle, slipped disc and trapped nerve.

I saw an osteopath who told me it was my pelvis. I got a CT scan and it showed a cyst on my adrenal gland. When I saw the doctor they told me it wasn't cancerous and bet their medical licence on it. They told me to go to physio. I did that for 2 months but it didn't help. The pain would spread to different parts of my body. My legs would go numb and so would my arms. My speech started to get slurred, stutter and forget what I was saying. I also suffer from chronic fatigue.

I went back to the same doctor and gave them a list of symptoms, most of which were neurological. I asked for an MRI to see if that would show anything. I was told by the doctor that they couldn't send me for one and that only the physiotherapist could do that after 6 months of physio. I asked how the physio would help my neurological issue especially my speech and if I could see a neurologist. They said that they could do that but the referral would just get sent back and my speech was fine.

When I was talking to the doctor I would struggle getting words out and forget what I was saying. During that appointment I could hardly walk because my legs were numb, left knee was sore, back was sore, I couldn't speak properly or think right and I got a prescription for ibruprofen gel.

The following week I went back to the physio and explained to them what happened and gave them a list of my symptoms. They said that my condition was neurological and they would write to the health centre. The following week I went to a different doctor and they went through my symptoms and agreed that I need to see a neurologist. They put urgent on the referral. It's now been nearly a month with no word of an appointment.

I've had to give up my job because of what is going on. I hardly leave the house due to the pain, fatigue and anxiety. The anxiety is partly due to my speech. When I'm in the house alone I don't do much speaking but when I go out my speech can get really bad and I can get frustrated.
