I had to wait nearly two years for my MAPS report it arrived with blank pages covering things over in parts. I can only assume that it is my report as the DOB is wrong. On my return from MAPS my Doctor called me in to tell me "nothing is wrong" I felt like an MOD guinea pig who never gave informed consent. I've recently been diagnosed with heavy metal poisoning (lead uranium antimony etc etc) and other complications. I have recently paid for a copy of my NHS file and found that on the day of seeing my Doctor following MAPS I have 5 years missing from my file. I requested my MAPS report from the MOD I was sent to 3 different departments in the end I had to complain to the ICO.
