An Efficient NHS?
Goodness, it's only just over a week since I went to see the Consultant about my back and today an appointment letter arrived for my MRI scan and it's on Sunday. That's less than two weeks after I saw the Consultant and I am, quite frankly, staggered.
It's a relief, as I have been suffering rather badly over the last five days, to the point where I'd shout "Yes, please!" if they offered to chop my body off at the neck. I don't know how long it will take after the scan to get anything else done, but this gives me great hope.
Hats off to the NHS and Musgrove Hospital for getting their act together!
The relief as palpable here in Shepton, as I'm looking after a gang of ten cats, all of whom seem to have some dietary foible or the other and it's a bit like doing an assault course! I love the furries to bits and they are all such affectionate and lovely creatures but it does take it out of my back! Still, they keep me moving.

That is wonderful news! There are times I think we'd be much better going that route here in the states and others that I'm thrilled to death that we don't. Until they come up with a better working plan all together, I'll stick with the mess that I know.
I hope they can get you worked out soon! {{{HUGS}}}
Oh me too Foxy! Even if it means getting chopped up, anything will be better than the current situation.
Good luck with everything, SW, I'll be thinking of you. Back pain is just evil, it's horrible.
I adore cats! I have just 3 of the little horrors, wouldn't want to be without them.
Really glad to hear of such a swift step forward on this - great news!
Glad to hear there's some good news from the NHS for once. Good luck and let us know how it goes.
So pleased you are getting things sorted fast. I have only suffered from back pain on the odd occassion and it has almost been unbearable. Hope everything is made better for you soon.
wow, that is quick! good luck Shepton, sending you hugs and healing wishes for sunday and beyond
