    @ Venus, Well done a difficult thing to prove, no wonder it’s taken so long, hope you are a better and stronger person from going through this process many would have given up.

    I just hope for the poster's sake that the next review is more sympathetic to his difficulties without further course to the Tribunal again!

    Well done & congratulations

    I've just started my reassessment, it's making me feel sick
    But it's lovely to hear that you've got through it & out the other side
    It's giving me hope
    Thank you x
