[Postmeno3]

Hi,
I had a bit of a lightbulb moment there. I just got to wondering if the NHS practices we receive and the subsequent treatment plans could be based entirely on where we live and therefore how financially there is resource? Different regions within one country and different countries, even within the UK, are very differently resourced which is bound to affect practice? It's maybe more a case of what isn't available to practitioners who are subject to these controls? Maybe they are doing the best they can within such limitations?
(I think this is in the wrong section, possibly. Apologies!)
Any thoughts?

Post code lottery is a problem across all medical conditions.  Different in Wales and Scotland 2 England availability too.

Yep,when I lived in Wales,the NHS was appalling sadly,the difference was incredible when I moved to Wiltshire,it's such a shame as it really shouldn't be like that

Different countries have different budgets .

Yet everyone pays their NI so it should be the same for all,NHS in Scotland was good as it is here in England,now I just need to live in NI to check theirs out

It depends too on whether a patient can get to speak face2face with a GP as well as waiting lists getting longer and longer  as many Wards remain under C-19 regulations.
