Welcome to OCF Site! As you can see from my signature, my husband's diagnosis was very similar. It's great that your GP did the referral without a lot of messing around with antibiotics - the quicker the diagnosis the better! It sounds like the word is getting out.
Will you be treated at Carbone? That is a CCC - should be top flight for treatment.
Again, welcome.
