Hi BTD

Congratulations on passing your medical. I’m really pleased for you after your anxiousness leading up to the medical. And you wont have to suffer the indignity of PWIs. Don’t forget to ask for a copy of your medical report.

I was informed that I passed my medical last week. I took the full 6 weeks to complete the form, got a medical within 16 days, and a decision 3 weeks later and within the 13 week assessment phrase. I take it you filled in your form a lot quicker than I did.

Unfortunately for me there is no escaping Pathways to Work.

Best regards

Derek

Thanks Derek. I wish you well indeed. All I am waiting to hear about now is the DLA application, so all in all I am fairly delighted.

Not really sure I even want to see my medical assessment as in all honesty if ATOS are their usual it will have many untruths contained within and honestly? I really do not want to get wound up and end up with a massive giant urtacaria attack.

I have had several over the past few weeks all requiring injections of adrenalin to arrest...even so it takes time to go completely...well until the next one that is.

Be well and God bless.

Mike

So pleased that you have good result BTD can have some peace and quite now, much deserved fingers crossed for good DLA result too

Well I was completely wrong. Te letter arrived to say I had been put in the work related group and my money increases at the end of Septober.

All in all including my first pathways to work interview it has been done start to finish in eight weeks.

The PWI was fine, the very nice lady stated she did not wish to see me again, and would make the arrangements to cancel the remaining five interviews. Off the record she said that in her opinion I should have been in the support group. I really can't be fussed with appealing, I'm just glad it is all over with.

I am waiting for a reply regarding care and mobility for DLA. I'm expecting to be turned down but hey-ho, I've been quite wrong this far so fingers crossed.

I'd like to say a huge thank you for all the advice and suggestions and in particular the information contained here on the site.

I haven't yet read all the posts in here yet so forgive me if it has already been said. You should appeal because it is a little bit more money being in the support group. Not loads I know but if you are entitled to it then....
