appeal won

After lodging an appeal in march, finally had appeal hearing this week and went from wrag to support group in less than 10 mins. I have fibromyalgia and didn't think I could win, but it shows it can happen if you keep on trying and fighting. Being a member of B&W helped in more ways than can be expressed - thank you b&w! Good luck to all of you who are still fighting, wish you all the best and please never give up...

Hi,

Well done and thanks for coming back to the forum to let us know the result.

It can give hope and reassurance to those going through the process of appeal that is possible to have a successful outcome.

So pleased for you :0)
I have recently been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and have been worrying how ATOS would treat sufferers.
Already on IB and DLA for symptoms.
But happily read any advice you could spare.
Congratulations
