"My general experience is of seeing people locally, who tell me I can't possibly have the condition I think I've got. And then fighting over several years. Eventually getting to see a specialist, usually in London, [saying I've] got what I've known for years. But can you put it on a piece of paper so that the doctors locally know and believe me? And so we go round this merry go round. Again and again and again."
