I got referred to the Tamar Referal treatment centre. Great Hospital, great treatment. However the doctor felt it best to refer me straight back to Derriford (which I think is the biggest joke in South West) and now I've been waiting just over 4 Weeks for an appointment in extreme discomfort and pain which debilitates me.
It's my foot that I am being referred for and as a woman in her early 20s I never imagined NHS services would leave me unable to lead a normal life for so long, for no reason.
This isn't your fault but its ridiculous to have a referral system like this when there's nothing to refer us to. May as well go to A&E.
