the way I approach it all was to put enough information on medical questionare ie the way your problem affects your faculties ,loss of power , strenght and movement,put down the worst day ever on how your condition is on a day to day basis,first thing in a morning during the day at night , who helps you how your medication reacts ie dizziness mood swings etc ,are you safe in household with your condition?what you have had fitted to your house to make it easier for you,get as much info from your GP,consultant ,physio etc ,go back to when your pronlem started up to the present day,you have a problem that degenerative ,that is your problem is going to get worse not better,if you have mobility problems get groundfloor medical and recorded,take prescriptions and medication to your medical and take someboby with you and tell them to take notes ie name of nurse/doctor what that there qualifications are,don't let them rush you or give you a examination if will hurt you,tell them this,if you have problems sitting get up every 20 minutes and have a breather,ask for a drink of water during the the examination and take some pain killers,be asertive , make your points regarding your degenerative condition and lack of faculties, push this point home time and time again,do not let them browe beat you, stand up and be counted,if you have a genuine problem you shuold win the day,I contacted my MP to that I didn't think I needed a face to face medical,he in turn fought my corner and wrote to my job centre manager,MP s can make the difference it did for me.hope this helps -

Thanks Magaret, for that usefull info,the way to go is recorded examination because of all the lies that these so called proffesionals,I have been to many medicals since 1992 ,don't let the doctors browe beat you , stand your ground and dont let them examine under any circumstances if it hurts , end of.These people donot like when you stand up for yourself , be strong,

Thankyou Margaret. I did that the day before my last medical,can I refuse to attend medical without a recording,they seem to be absolutely clueless when you ring them up,my records and information wasn't even at the medical centre ,regards Dave
