Assessment report

I received a message to say dwp has my assessment report.. could take 8weeks until I hear anything back. I called up and asked for the written report and just received it. Now I know that sometimes dwp can go against the advise given... the health assessor was absolutely lovely so different to my first assessor. It looks like 13 points for daily and 22 for mobility so fingers crossed they go ahead with the recommendation. I'm hopeful.

On the other hand my anxiety medication is driving me absolutely all over the place... shakes, vomiting..delusional also. I absolutely hate it.

    Fingers crossed for you @troublethomas make sure you let us know how you get on please. 😁

    Regarding your medication, please call your GP first thing on Monday for a chat. I know with many meds for depression and anxiety, they can take a few weeks to really kick in and sometimes make things worse for a bit, but they're worth sticking with. But definitely speak to your doc if you're worried.

    Just an update I called today for an update. And apparently I have been awarded enhanced for both daily and mobility. I will await the letter of confirmation but the gentleman confirmed the amounts and dates. I'm so happy. Thank you all so so much for your support.
