I sent my form back i never had help i wrote how i was feeling properly this time. I spoke to my advisor yesterday she told me to phone WCA as it was taking to long so i phoned and asked when my assessment would be he said they received my form and they was getting information from my doctor he said they was trying to do a paper based assessment and that i might not have a appointment and said to keep checking my journal but its not garunteed. I put in my form that i had a psychiatrist appointment on the 6th of this month the bloke from WCA said they requested doctors report on the 9th but i spoke to receptionist at my doctors and asked about starting quetiapine but she did not listen she never asked about this but told me a doctor would phone about medication but she was on about naproxen witch i just started for my knees so i asked whilst on phone and doctor said he new nothing about it and there was no report from the psychiatrist yet i lost it and obliterated my phone up the wall i was saying the naproxen has been giving me gut problems and he was going to try changing my omeprozol to another gut tablet so now im not taking them at all and am still in pain all my fit notes are on the phone as well i always do stupid things so do WCA get information from psychiatrist

They very rarely contact anyone. If they contact your GP they will send them the UC113 form to fill in and return.0

I am due to send my form back when I have completed it. Hope they don't send my doctor a UC113 as my doctor has never seen me about any of my "problems" in the last five years. In that time I have seen people at the hospital, counsellors and therapists but the last two don't even report anything back to the doctors0

Hi @salty1212334
Oh dear, I'm sorry you've found this experience frustrating so far. Did you break your phone? And just to check, do you feel you have enough support with your mental health right now?
Try not to worry too much, and I hope you can get some relief from your pain soon.0 -
Did you give them your psychiatrist's contact details?0
