Sorry, but what you're saying does belittle a lot of people's experiences. One good result for one person doesn't excuse a bad result for another.
I can't afford proper private treatment, the NHS refuses to give me any, and I've lost two years of my life and thousands of pounds in money I can't afford to paying for the private testing and meds that have just kept me afloat. Some people in worse situations than me can't even afford this and are left on the scrap heap.
My mum was diagnosed with cancer, she was in and out in two months, all clear touch wood. My brother had to have a toe amputated and was referred to a private consultant. He was treated like shit and was misdiagnosed twice, once he was told it was "all in his head and probably making it up for the attention" - he's severely disabled.
Not to belittle anyone's experience but the NHS is fucking amazing and we need to resist any attempt to dismantle it.
