I am under neurology for right sided weakness, and hyperreflexia. Ruled out MS and spinal issues with MRI and NCS. Appt time to see neurologist for follow up is 45 weeks (argh). Neuro letter even stated I needed bloods. So won't see neuro until then. Tried my GP and asked to consider deficiencies and ask for blood tests. They sent the footfall form back and said no, neurologist has to order it. I booked appointment again stating anxiety over symptoms to get an appointment and they then, told me I have health anxiety and wouldn't order bloods. This was a few weeks after first appt and symptoms the same. A few weeks later booked another appt, weakness the same and can't think properly. Again, told likely fnd or HA and to get counselling. Booked a private blood test as getting fed up, cost me over £100. B12 and folate through the floor (like really through the floor). I take B12 daily so will need injections as clearly can't absorb it. GP ordered their own tests so they have NHS ones which showed the same. I don't understand why I had to beg in my final appointment. Is it normal to refuse to do anything when under another specialty, even routine stuff like bloods?
