Glad it's all over and it wasn't as bad as you thought it would be. Many people think exactly the same. It often takes quite a few hours to update the online tracker so have a check back later and hopefully it will have been updated with a possitive outcome.

Thank you for checking rainbow xx
I will leave it alone now, and take poppy advice and. CHeck again later,, going to get a huge bath, i am cold and tired and glad todays over,, speak soon xx2 -
Good look with it @Ollyoyster. I know the waiting can be nerve-wracking. Try to enjoy your bath without worrying about it if you can! Check it afterwards. You've done the hard part, well done. I'm glad it wasn't so bad. I often find that the worrying about something is worse than the actual 'thing' itself! I turn it into such a large and scary thing, but usually it's all okay.
Keep us informed

@Ollyoyster
Good morning I hope you’re feeling a bit better today.I’m glad you found the tribunal a lot better than you imagined.I have had 2 and couldn’t believe how decent the panel were.After my last appeal in 2020 they couldn’t tell me at the end the outcome but I received a letter 2 days later, it was a positive outcome.
I really hope you have a great outcome too.
I to have stage 4 osteoarthritis I’m actually going in for my second knee replacement on Thursday.Good luck ❤️1 -
So glad it went well @Ollyoyster, that's ace news.

Like @Lou67, I've had two tribunals so far and they were honestly so easy going and friendly. I even got an apology from the judge for how the DWP had dragged things on for 18 months. That was worth the fight.
(and of course, best of luck for Thursday, not long to go, eek, exciting!) 1 -
