Thank you Electron, I will have a read up on this tomorrow.
Although we have explain to the Dr how much pain Mark is in, he can not get us into see the specialist any sooner. Mark's appointment should have been 30th Sept and has now been put back to 14th Oct. My poor man had tears in his eyes when he read that.
There is not a resident neurologist at our local hospital, so it seems as though we get second best
Mark said he would have his feet off if it would get rid of the pain as it's so bad.
It breaks my heart so see him suffering day in day out, and I don't think it is doing our children much good either. They are 12 & 14, therefore they can see how much he is suffering.

Sorry for going on and on, just needed to vent a little.

Thank you for your kindness xx
