Hi all, just to let you know I got a date for my appeal for disability, 18th May. At last, I waited almost a year. So I had better make it count this time. Any advice would be apreciated.

Hiya Bernie can't believe you have had to wait a year that is totally shocking, the only advice i can give really is make sure you have someone with you. I know they can ask questions like how you got there on the day from what your wearing etc.. sorry i couldn't be of anymore help all you can do is be yourself and not let them scare you. I have got a DLA doctor coming to my house tomorrow for a medical examination eekkk! Good luck and i hope you get what is rightfully yours xxx

Hiya Kazzie, i don't think they go to everyone's house. They came to mine to decide what level i should recieve basically the doctor came had a look at me and asked a few questions then his report will then go to DLA and they point score it, stupid really, as they have had a report off my doctor and my consultant. So a bit pointless really lol
