I'm at the do tors soon so gonna see about my pain. The lift situation cant be sorted I'm in a council flat and the only way for me to get out of here is on my bottom. Very degrading I know not only for me but for people who are trying to get passed me. I e pit in for a move on medical grounds so it's just a waiting game now0
