In my opinion.

yes she is bringing in mandatory recording of assessments. The cynic in me says this is legal protection for them not us . She knows full well they avoid giving anything over 4 points hence a new law stating we need 4 points . This means probably half of claimants that currently claim will have to go to tribunal. If it’s anything like when DLA moved to pip they will need to hire new buildings and train new staff including Drs and judges. This will offset their £5b . IMO of course

Yes, they are saying November 2026. I haven't had a clear enough focus over the past couple of days to thoroughly read the Green Paper and respond on the consultation. I'll be doing that over the weekend.
I will also be affected by the 4 point rule. I have points over five descriptors but only 2s and 3s.Let's continue to be strong and see what happens. I know it's difficult x

We all have every right to be extremely cynical about this. If this was about help or even a good-faith albeit foolish attempt to get people back into work they'd bring in a raft of measures to support people, support employers, include practical measure and bring in rights and legislation to give more proection to sick and disabled but they're not. One thing I would say it don't forget recording is a two way process and and protect you too even though it's not the intension.

Yours is very similar to mine although I didn't get a pic but I will next time I see them face to face my appt Monday is on phone for some reason . Maybe they will try telling me it's just mild again.
Have they stated if it descends on yours and by how many mm ? My first MRI literally just said "early stage chiari type " second MRI said a whole lot more ,said it was 4mm ,and I had brain sag (matches the rest of the body currently 😂)

mine isn’t up till next year so due the dreaded form any time . I can’t remember which comment I replied to but most likely regarding someone having problems applying . Not sure how it will go next assessment for me as it’s close to the date of the new rules

I think best time to have a review is in the year preceding the change, as it will be on the old rules. Any existing awards at the change over date will be honoured.
I did see a article from a trash news media claiming there is already a crack down, there isnt, existing applications and reviews are still on the old rules.2 -
Its around 4-5mm.. i have the readings but its all on disc..Simply going from memory

That attitude is surely (in the very least) bullying, discrimination, breach of human rights?

I imagine if I’m awarded it won’t be for long though . Last time she was knowledgeable of my conditions of which there are no cure. She ticked reassess in 2 years . Dwp actually increased it by 10 months . I’d like to know what criteria they curious for 10 year light touch as I’m in highest with conditions that can’t improve.
