He has been for scans etc but essentially the NHS have not offered any possible help - is there any?

In anticipation angusannie
Hi Angusannie
I am based in Scotland and didnt have much help from anyone until I was referred to the Pain Management Clinic and the Consultant was fabulous - is your husband in any pain?
Ironically my Neurologist is now back on board(she has just returned from an 18month Maternity leave) and things are looking promising with her also - you need to get referred to the specialists.
Best Wishes
