medical stuff

Chiropractor was a statuesque, Mesmer-eyed alternative health person, but she talked only of bones and muscles, which was a good sign. Cracked my bits and so on. In traditional chiropractic intensive fashion, I'm going back on Thursday morning.

This morning the GP was late, and I waited about an hour for a two-minute consultation. I will be referred to a neurologist. This seems the right way to go, but I hope I don't have to wait 6 months or so. :o(

Am in Leytonstone net cafe, but their cafe bit is broken, so I shan't stay long. I have a cold and am wearing olbas oil, so I damn well need a coffee to get rid of the smell, if only temporarily.

"I will be referred to a neurologist."
You mean you don't have one already????
Make sure you don't get stuck with the one I've got, Dr Clarke at Whipps Cross!
He's an arrogont **** who is a typical English doctor, from what I can gather none of them want to know you.
My neuro team in Scotland were great! Yes team, Neuro-oncologist the best in Scotland,Neuro-surgeon also the best in Scotland and a neurolgist.
Dr Clarke cannot understand this level of care :-(

To be honest, any neurologist will do now. I don't want his/her opinion, just an EEG and a prescription for something that isn't Sodium Valproate. It will be obvious to them that the faster they do what I want, the sooner they'll get rid of me.
