The only way to find out is to give them a ring. Anything here would be no more than a guess

They may have a short notice appointment and ring to see if you will accept it. You do not have to accept

You will need to have proof of identity, If you have any further evidence then you should also take copies but be prepared for the assessor not to take itA current prescription list is also a good idea0

Besides which it is not unknown for some claimants to continue to claim the prescriptions from the GP without good reason and without actually taking the meds - a sort of window dressing to substantiate illnesses and disabilities. In that case it must be extremely difficult in trying to get rid of them every month!

Not a strange suggestion at all! They ask what meds you are on, and if you can pass the list over it saves the struggle over pronunciation on your part and spelling on theirs.0

Speaking personally the medication I am prescribed is as a result of a long series of neurological tests which would be quite difficult to 'rig'. Family members have epilepsy, asthma which is also quite difficult to fiddle I would have thought..
Perhaps some conditions are easier to feign than others - I'd be interested to hear the details (out of curiosity - I'm not beating a path to my GP's door just yet!)0 -
Well, there was a certain somebody who used to mention it every now and again across the interwebs.1

I was never asked to recite what medication I was on at any of the three assessments - to be honest I might have remembered just one of them.

I presume it happens when the patient recovers to an extent that they feel that they don't want the medication. But continue to get it to keep appearances up for whatever reasons - maybe to show the DWP what has been prescribed therefore backing up the claim that the illness/disability is worse than it actually is?
