I was sent for an MRI by my Rheumatology to the Golden Jubilee and was told it would take 4-6 weeks to get results!
it has now been 6 weeks and still there are no results. Meanwhile I am in agony with my back, legs, feet and ankles. My rheumatologist cannot change my treatment to help ease pain as treatment depends on the MRI results.

Do you have a similar story to tell?
