I think I've lost all faith in humanity, these so called specialists show no compassion what's so ever. I find them to be not very nice people, if only they would take a different approach to their patients. If only they were less negative I may have received a correct diagnoses by now, but they just don't want to commit to anything.
I suppose many of us are lead to believe if we fall ill, then a simple operation will fix us, but its not quite that simple. How do doctors decide if and when a patient needs an operation or not, how much evidence do they need to give that patient the healthcare they need. We all know that doctors do not know everything, they will be the first to tell you that, I've been told enough times now.
My lady urologist told me these type of operations rarely work, the patient ends up in a worst condition. The amount of times I have been told verbally and in writing that I could end up in worst pain is getting ridiculous now, even my GP said to me a few weeks ago not to go down the surgical root if I can help it...
My experience with the NHS over the years has not be very good, watching family and friends falling ill and not getting the help they need has been all to common. Now I'm at the forefront wanting help from the NHS myself, I can now see why others have struggled, it seems there is always a fight/battle to get your foot in the door to get noticed. I really don't hold much hope on a second opinion making any difference TBH, the whole algorithm set up just doesn't work for patients like me, not unless the pain problem is waving at them saying 'Yoo-hoo! hello it is I that is the problem!...
I certainly would never recommend the urology clinic at The Royal Bournemouth Hospital to anyone, blooming hopeless bunch on dimwits.
