I have suffered 2 seizures in the past year resulting in trips to A&E on both occasions. I have had 2 neurological consultations, 1 private and 1 NHS. The NHS consultant recommended that I have either an X-ray or MRI scan on my my back, which was an injury I sustained when I had my second seizure. I was told by the consultant that she would recommend a referral by my GP. My GP has chosen not to refer me, recommending that I attend a physio appointment first. I explained that I have undergone 6 months private Physiotherapy treatment already, but am still having, sometimes chronic, back pain. My fear is that I may have sustained an injury to my back that still goes undetected, because I have not yet had the relevant tests.

My GP should have acted on recommendations from the consultants, and referred me for a an X-ray or/and MRI scan.
