Denied full diagnostic assessment

bee0108

Just finished my triage appointment with the BASS service and got told they wont recommend me for a full assessment as I'm functioning. I'm really distraught and I genuinely think theyre wrong but I am not sure where to go from here.

EDIT 

This was the reply to the email I sent to the diagnosis centre in Devon as I am moving back this summer and this was the reply. I am unsure if I have technically been assessed as BASS stated this was a triage to see if they though I needed an assessment and was basically a repeat of the questions on their referral questionnaire

  • bee,

    I see that you've now added further info to your first post.  I really don't know if a triage counts as an assessment, but  I seriously doubt it. It most certainly isn't a FULL assessment.

    When you move to Devon you need to discuss things with your new GP.  

    Waiting time FOUR YEARS!!!  That really is outrageous.
