Referred to neurology from GP end of October 2016.
First appointment February 2017 with locum consultant
MRI scan March 2017
3 weeks after MRI Locum consultant confirms MS diagnosis over phone (only after detective work to find email address) – advises referral to QEUH neurology (named consultant).
May 2017, no news from QEUH neurology. Phoned up named consultant secretary advised 26 week wait.
Very unhappy. Have just waited 26weeks! Have a diagnosis but no information how to plan and to deal with diagnosis.
What has happened to 18 week referral to treatment RTT targets? [The 18 Weeks RTT is a whole journey waiting time standard from initial referral to the start of treatment].
"No communication and waiting too long"
