GP consultation following diagnosis

illustrated.lady

Hello!

I got diagnosed by Psychiatry UK around 6 weeks ago and I got the report last Sunday. I got a call from my GP surgery today to book me in for a phone consultation to discuss the letter with my GP.

I was really surprised as I assumed they would just file it away. I'm not really sure what to expect from the conversation as I know there aren't really any services for autistic adults in my area.

Has anyone had similar from their GP surgery?

  • Congrats on your diagnosis !

    Well done for getting a response from your GP, took my own diagnosis in to the Docs 4 months ago, never heard anything.  Have since self-referred to Talking Therapies - although they seem equally inefficient - around 3 months wait until 1st 30 min call (next month), which is the 3rd appointment booked and I expect they'll find an excuse to cancel last minute again. 

    Hope your appointment goes well.  Be interesting to hear, what support you get offered
