MS diagnosis via the NHS?

Hi there, wondering if anyone else in the UK can share their experience… I’m on the waitlist to be seen by Neurology as I’ve had MS symptoms for over a year now. I’m 10 weeks into the waitlist and the average wait is 22 weeks. I just wondered if anyone else in the UK could share their experience of being diagnosed through the NHS? Particularly if it was in the last couple of years, as from what I’ve read diagnosis was much faster pre-Covid. I’m particularly wondering how quickly things move once you’ve initially been seen by a consultant (ie. how long did you have to wait for an MRI, lumbar puncture etc) Any help much appreciated, thank you 😊

I got diagnosed with ms around 7months after symptoms started and had many tests
