Springfield Radiology rang up about my upcoming CT scan and X-Rays. Best they could offer us was 08:30 on Friday morning, so another early start for me, I take so long to get organised in the mornings these days. Then Springfield Physio phoned to check that the neurosurgeon that he really wants a hard / rigid collar for my neck. We confirmed and she said "We don't do those" so now they're starting some complicated process to get hold of one from somewhere. This confirms a problem I'm increasingly aware of there - some of the consultants seem to live in a world of their own without knowing much about how the services underneath them actually operate.
The post included a letter from Springfield telling me that my next neurologist "review" appointment has been put back by a full week. So that's a week's delay in organising whatever treatment we all decide on, and another week of both hands getting slowly and steadily worse. Am I happy? You work it out!
