Hello there and welcome to CAG.

 

I've started a new thread for you so you can have advice that's specific to you.

Hello there fretful, I hope we can help you.

 

I started this thread for someone else, but I seem to have made a bit of a lash up of it. Would you like the title changed, then you can keep posting here?

 

My best, HB

Hi HB13...I think it would be good if there was some information for people going and gettiung repared prior to a medical test...maybe some points and tips of do's and don't's.

 

I know the rules on welfare benefits have changed but don't know much about the medical tests as my last one which I thought went alright...but turned out a complete nightmare and if I had to go through all of that again...that would be like another nail in the coffin.

 

Hello again. We call it a 'medical' here. Atos do an assessment of what you're able to do, they say. A read around the forum will tell you how the computer system seems to reinterpret the facts.

 

Have you read leemack's forum sticky about how to answer the questions to give yourself the best chance? I think it's well worth a read.
