Instead of going abroad,why not come up to Scotland. I am constantly amazed at the lengths of people waiting for dental treatment when i see them on TV,up here there are virtually no such problems,i would go as far as to say it is almost obsolete,more so where i live (Motherwell).

Thanks for the reply tiglet,i know where you are coming from,but i had at least 6 x rays to contend with in the months after November,and as you may possibly know,when you have a bone scan,it apparently is able to find any wrongful diagnosis. More than likely,i won't go down to road of suing them,i dislike this suing culture although there are cases in which people do have to contend with.

What i don't understand is why they did not send me for a scan to begin with,instead of nearly 15 months of weekly physiotherapy. My wife said i should sue them but i'm wary of doing that for some reason. I

I just found this place from some nice person on Martinsmoneysavers.com. Okies,the question i'm going to ask has probably been asked before,maybe even 1 million times,so can i make it 1,000,001, can anyone tell me if i can claim for the small fees that may say something like.......Charges to (then the date is listed when it has been collected. I use the Royal Bank of Scotland,and on my bank sheets,it is the 4th letter down on the left hand side which is the one i am querying. Thanks for any advice.
