Hi adnamaz
I am so sorry to hear everything you have been going through with so little support or information.
I am one of Scope's Information & Advice Workers. We work locally to support parents to get the information and help that they need. I'm not sure what area you are living in but if you contact Scope's helpline on 0808 800 3333 they will be able to put you in touch with your local worker.
I hope this helps :-)

Hey adnanaz,
The first step is get back to the doctors and ask for a neurologist referral. Mine has been great for me, they help with things like insoles (if needed to help walking), physio and any other treatment. They seem to make it go through a bit faster than a GP would as well.
Hope this helps x -
I'm in Warwickshire, she has a Physio and insoles
