Subject: Dla and biologics
I was wondering if anyone has claimed dla on the anti tnf drugs a lot of people have told me that once u get onto them the dwp see it as a cure and don't give you anything, my claim is up for renewal early next year and I'm not sure what will happen 1 thing for sure I might be on the biologics but they sure have not cured me ( which I knew they didn't anyways) I barley fel any better and my blood counts are all mucked up on it. Anyway if anyone has any answers please let me know Thanks in advance

Hi Lynn, I think you would have to ask your consultant to provide a letter explaining all the problems you have. I was told that they argue that biologics can stop working anytime (as we know!) and you need to spell out all your difficulties. b

Hi Lynn I am on cimzia and had my dla renewed this year, shouldnt effect your claim with regards to you being on anti tnfs its more about how you feel/cope every day. I still have really bad days and some better days. Good luck with your claim
