My advice would be to make an appointment to see a private consultant. Then, if an MRI etc is needed, ask if you could have that as an NHS patient. If nothing else you may be seen & get a scan quicker.

If you go down that route write up a kind of "victim impact statement" making a list of all your symptoms,how it is affecting your life,treatments to date & any questions you have. Dress up smartly & take it with you so that you can make sure you don't forget anything.I found you get better results if you are fairly business like about the whole thing. Strange but true.
Thanks alot for that. Just curious, were you're feet always cold as well?
