    I did PIP online, so don't remember how long it was. The WCA was a paper booklet, so I could take my time filling it in.

    I don't trust any politicians anymore, of any persuasion. They are all over privileged, over paid, clueless, expense claiming, wankspangles!

    Sorry! I am just electorally homeless... No one to vote for now ☹️

    I remember when I did my PIP review…in 2021 I think…I asked the GP for a copy of my medical record and it still said awaiting outcome of autism assessment.

    …Which happened in 2005. They had the letter confirming that diagnosis, just had not put it on the system. Since 2005.

    They have now. They were good enough to apologise and send me an updated version of my medical record, thankfully.

    I have not even met my actual registered GP. I go as little as possible because the waiting room freaks me out, but every time I do go, it's someone different (or a paramedic or a nurse).

    I did the same, as I hate to not to use my vote.

    I understand. The doctor I am currently seeing has been the best so far, but the GP that owns the practice is a nightmare - he misdiagnosed my mum with back sprain - she has spondylosis! Everything is a battle.

    @Enduring_Rogue Thank you for tagging me in with an update. I’m really sorry to hear about all the hurdles you’re facing at your GP surgery and the difficult experiences you’ve had.
    I’ve just read through your thread, and it’s clear you’ve taken all the needed steps based on the helpful advice from fellow members. I really hope your current doctor can provide a report that supports the points you’ve made in your UC50 form.
    I’m also sorry to hear about the long wait for a GP appointment—I know how draining that can be. Please try to hang in there and keep going.


    Good luck with your ADHD assessment on Monday and your GP appointment in May. Wishing you the very best with your WCA paperwork. I wasn’t sure if I got this right, but are you also waiting for a PIP review? If so, I’m sending best wishes for that too.


    I sent my own PIP review paperwork in September 2024. My original award was due to end in March 2025, but it’s been extended by a year to allow time for the review and assessment due to backlogs.


    Wishing you all the very best with everything moving forward!👍
