I was initially under rheumatology and have pretty much managed my own flare ups and with great difficulty. My mobility is very limited. I have been trying for 5 months to get back into rheumatology but they tell me I am no longer a patient. Previously I would see a consultant and have injections twice a year. I have never received any correspondence from them. This disease continues to get worse and because I have no access to treatment!
In January it took me 3 weeks to finally get through to my GP who said they will need to make another referral to rheumatology. I have heard nothing since despite having bloods done by GP.
Very sad and awful health service for me anyway.
