My mother is facing an ongoing wait for cardiology appointments and investigations. Her symptoms started four months ago and she waited two months for initial consultation regarding arrhythmia. She is now awaiting further investigation however in the meantime has had a TIA which I feel is likely to be as a direct result of lack of cardiology diagnosis.
I think this is absolutely shocking and it feels to me that a potentially preventable condition has occurred due to lack of prioritisation and resource allocation.
