    Confusing isn't it lol I really hope you get it all back dated x
    They say after the assessment you have to wait another 8 weeks by that time I would have waited 26 weeks. They don't hurry themselves do they XXX

    Oh they certainly don’t rush lol fingers crossed you get your award soon mind try to phone again Monday see if you can get someone else to send your report out so at least you’ll have a good idea of the outcome, it’s the not knowing that is murder ?‍♀️

    thanks Lou and we are and have been praying for you also  :) im a little bit troubled by a post someone has posted, ive put a reply because im so fed up of not getting any income whatsoever, i havent swore but i would be happy with any daily living/mobility benefit, i hope ive not caused offence but im fed up to the back teeth after having had surgery since i was 12 years old and now being diagnosed with fibromyalgia and im basically begging for help??????????

    I'm definitely going to phone again on Monday I was told they don't send the report out only this morning but Others can get theirs ? does the report have the points on when you get the copy ? Or Is it the decision maker that scores you ? Xx
