    you do have to wonder at how they come to their decisions though, my friend has fibro only and got HRC and HRM without a medical or appeal or anything. Don't get me wrong, I den't begrudge her, but you do have to wonder how if they are supposedly all following the same criteria, they can get to different sums for each claim like that?
