It would be unheard of really to have so many different tests and procedures on the NHS on the same day, unless you were in an emergency situation, which she is not. They just wouldn't be coordinated like that. So if she's not <insert Jimmy>, then it's private.

Would it really be necessary to have a CT scan plus an x-ray? I thought CT goes above what an x-ray can do, so you wouldn't have both scheduled for the same day? Happy to be corrected by fraus with better medical knowledge than I 🙂.

I think the only thing we can be 100% certain on is that she’s definitely lying about something

It's also feasible that it's a menu of options but not a full schedule. Or that the letter has been misinterpreted by the patient. Or that it's all bollocks.

You could be onto something there. I actually was referred to Endocrinology yesterday by my GP and he said they will do some tests on you, usually various and specific blood tests but you might need a scan too etc etc and I did not take that to mean I am having all those things done. But if I was a massive attention seeker I might.
Thinking about it, you horrible ninnies are the first people I’ve mentioned this to other than my husband, am I missing a trick by not setting up a Twitter account and announcing it to the world?

Simple answer: no. There are three large hospitals in south and mid Essex (Southend, Basildon, Broomfield) that cover a really large area. All have different specialisms and patients get sent to them from all over the county. Cancer patients go to Southend, Broomfield do plastic surgery/burns etc etc.
I am awaiting an appointment for a specialist referral to an hospital in London. (Not related to my cancer) I have been waiting over 18 months. Before being referred I had appointments at two hospitals "up north" to see the specialist there before being told it was beyond their capabilities. I have loads of experience of NHS treatments for many complex issues. I attend 5 local hospitals regularly over the past 20 years, one monthly, the others every other month.

The NHS is amazing, however it does not move quickly for non life threatening illnesses, especially during a pandemic.

She’s queen of the munchies but she’s worse than your garden variety attention-seeking munch because at least they say what they’re pretending to have. She knows the minute she reveals whatever she’s been breadcrumbing she’ll either be torn apart for lying about it or mocked for exaggerating the severity of a minor condition.

Squigs must have very poor memories because the first time I unfollowed her (around 2014) I hadn’t even clocked the origin story lies, I was just sick of her moaning about her apparent ill health. If it wasn’t her joints and the walking stick she conveniently no longer needed to use after the Hopkins trial was over, it was her heart, or some other fabricated ailment. We know that she doesn’t have rheumatoid arthritis because if she did she’d have been vaccinated by now. Even if she is ill (which she isn’t) I couldn’t give a tit because she can afford black cabs between her private “treatment” and overpriced and unnecessary aparthotel which shows 100% that she’s been talking tit this entire time about her financial situation while gleefully taking money from people who need it more.

The only thing she needs fixing is her malevolent personality.

Matt pretended to take a bite of the lasagne but I’m pretty sure you didn’t see it go in.

Yes, she never shows herself eating. Every other cook who has some form of platform shows themselves taking a bite of their own food, and going, ‘Mmm, that’s banging.’ She just takes a photo of it welded to the tin and covered in something appalling.
And it’s not that she doesn’t want to show herself eating, because she ate copious amounts of the stuff other people had made on DKL. Just not her own. Says a lot!

How would they know that she needs a cortisone injection before they have the results of the scan/Xray? Surely treatment would be decided once the diagnostic investigations had been completed.

Every time I've been for a scan or Xray, I then have to have a follow up appointment with the consultant to discuss the findings and treatment options. That appointment has never been the same day.

That has always been the same process, even with suspected cancer diagnosis.

However I always have my treatment through the NHS.

If she is having all that done on one visit, she is definitely going private. As you all know, I have recently had a cancer operation. It's not difficult to make clear, is it Jack? No one judges you for making your illness known, they judge you for dropping hints and implying it is something serious to gain sympathy and social media attention.

I had numerous separate dates to have my scans and treatments. They are not great at coordinating appointments in the NHS.
I have friends undergoing various treatments within the NHS and not once have they had everything done on the same day, normally it's different days.

She must be going private.

Same. I'm trying very hard not to comment on it, even here, but the obvious glee with which she's describing her ~treatments~ is the sickest thing about her.
Hopefully Jack is getting this message. Her post quoting a daytime radio presenter has garnered more than double the ❤ that her sadfishing one did.

Quoting myself as I want to amend an error, it is steroid injections, not cortisone.
