[LC in UK]

Finally have an appointment with a neurologist on August 21st and am in the process of purchasing a copy CD of the NHS radiological images taken of my neck and lower spine on July 23rd to take with me.
Shall make enquiries at the hospital tomorrow to see if I can have an MRI scan of my upper spine prior to the appointment, don't know if that has to be authorised by the consultant first though.
Realised I have a "hospital plan" that covers me up to a certain amount thank goodness, so at least investigations can start quicker than they would with the NHS. Have got a lot more worried about my situation since I saw my neck X-rays last week and hearing the registrar (different one!) say they were "not good".
Watch this space.....!!
