Hi Becky, nice to hear from you as always.

No, the rhumatologist I saw worked at a private clinic. I'm not sure if he was sympathetic due to my age or situation but he refferd me back to the NHS. As well as providing me with his email should I need to update him or ask any further questions.

By going for a private consultation it's basically skipped a few months of waiting for the NHS.

I've still got an appointment with a neurologist and hopefully my GP will continue with what the rheumatologist
has recommended. If not Mr annoying will return 🙂
