Great news C,

That must be a record, 1 minute, WOW, did they get as far as confirming your name, they must have just been checking that you weren't a figment of their imagination, LOL

Did you have to attend a centre or was it a home assessment?.

Would you mind giving some info regarding your condition ?, if not I understand.

Anyway, really pleased for you.

cheers

Hi Charlie

Well done. I'm sure you must be relieved.

Personally I would have been furious with Atos for wasting my time calling me in for a one minute medical. I don't think the ADA should be paid a fee for that. :laugh:

Good luck for the future.

My appointment was at a medical center and was with a registered nurse, who wasn't foreign for a change.

It was a pleasant experience, probably because the women were pretty and the outcome positive.

I have Chronic PTSD, agoraphobia, and depression. The whole thing was a complete waste of time as her decision was made before I even sat down.

Why they dragged me in I do not know, how long this decision is for and whether I will be equally well treated I do not know either.

I hope I get the same nurse next time tho' ;)

I applied for a home visit but was refused, I do not know why considering the immediacy of her ultimate decision. Maybe my appearance swung it?

Thanks to all who offered congrats. :)
