DLA

[shattered]

Wish me luck have finally sent off the DLA form together with all my information so there's me hoping and wishing fingers cross, but i am expecting them to reject the it only because they reject so many

i sent my form off on 21st may, got a letter few days later to say they had received it....and phoned them on friday to add some more meds onto the file and they said a decision letter already sent out.......probably get a bit fat no in the post tomorrow....!!!!....

when i applied last year they said endo was only period pain and therefore i couldnt be in as much pain as i said i was !!!!!!!!!!!!!!...

good luck girls

i got my DLA reward today........it claim was looked at and awarded under 3 weeks !!!...

mobility - not entitled to anything as i can walk, but slow, so not entitled cos apparently i dont stumble, fall or need help as in full control of any dangers !!!....despite telling them i do fall and when i do i need help getting up, i stumble all the time, i am not in full control cos of effect of painkillers !!!...

got awarded low rate care as i cannot make a meal for myself which is correct, but even tho i said i need frequent help during the day, i need help getting up, showering, washing, drying, dressing, help with toilet needs, help with meds, all cos of the fibro weakness in hands etc - so rang them up today to say not happy with this and they will request claim to be looked at again !!!!....

thought i would update you....
