    Hi @fedup2024, welcome to the community :) I don't think that should be an issue, they do sometimes get evidence from GPs. I don't know the timeframes I'm afraid :/ 

    Do keep us informed though, if anything does happen we can help you with appealing a decision against you :)

    All my sick notes for the past 20 years has been about my knees and mental health  so this should be okay? And thankyou should I ring them or wait for response? 

    Thankyou for getting back to me

    That sounds like it will certainly back up what you've put @fedup2024. But, if the DWP do decide otherwise, we are here to help support your appeal!
