Hi,
Having an interesting time. I attended a consult at the Royal Free, where I saw a consultant from the RF and a radiology consultant from UCH. The upshot was that the consultant from UCH wanted to do a biopsy followed by an ablation, or sabr radiotherapy. I wasn't going to die from the tumour on my right kidney, but it had grown and needed an intervention.
I received summary letters from both Consultants, but no biopsy date. Three weeks went by and I contacted PALS UCH about contact details and was told it could take 10 days (My Nurses at Barts have been involved). 10 days passed, no contact, so I sent a reminder to UCH today, no reply. E mailed PALS RF and received a full reply that it has been followed up. Jeez, what a difference. Just to clarify, I've been under UCH before and had nothing but frustration on the admin side and I am.concerned about falling between the cracks having been a number of hospitals at the same time (I'm currently under 4). I just amazed at the difference between the two teams.
