I followed up today on a referral from my doctor on a very sore could be frozen shoulder and probable cuff tear .The hospital told me yes I would be seen in 160 weeks . What could I say to disguise my disappointment .so I asked Would that be morning or afternoon .Its all been said before about health service .So that’s the way it goes .
After being passed around for a couple of months and sent to some portable NHS vans for x rays and tests where I kept getting conflicting advice I was referred to a phsyiotherapis for a short course. Cost me about £250 but it was cured within 4-6 weeks. It cleared what had been a real problem restricting my movement- I couldn't use a towel or put on a sweater. I'm not sure I had a tear though.
Anyway, it may be worh asking teh GP
