Have just read through the comments here and on 'thephysiovoice' and strongly recommend physio's take a look there too, to increase their awareness of all the issues so we can all make an informed choice about how we proceed as individuals, like this website it is being updated as often as possible.

Initially I was just worried about the financial implications short term but now my clinical autonomy is head of the agenda, long term implications second and any short term loss pretty irrelevant in the big scheme.
