I have finally got an appointment at the neurologists on thursday. Anyone in the UK will know how hard it is to see one on the NHS.
What Im wondering is does anyone know the best way to deal with a first appointment. I just hope that he isnt like the doctors I have seen, with no consideration or support for CH. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
