You have someone going with you dont you and you are recording it?
I have been through it with someone I know and my husband, but both were rescued at appeal pet and niether had your disability so I dont have a clue at what will happen at your medical.
You will be ok, tell the truth and be yourself and if you get upset show them this, if you get in any other emotional state show it and tell them about it and you will be fine.
Will you let us know how you get on?
We are here to help you if you need us, <hugs>
I'll let you know how it went and the result (when i get it)

it really is bad to think of all the genuinely sick people who are having their lives destroyed by atos and their damn computers.
the whole thing makes me so angry.
im sick to death of seeing comments like " you only see bad stories, not the good ones "
maybe thats because there are rarely any good stories... the only good stories i hear are from people that win appeals.
mind you, i suppose atos are working together with david cameron in his big society in name of the national interest.
people living in poverty having their lives destroyed, people being passed fit for work with serious conditions and then dying because of the stress...
big society my balls.0 -

I agree with you. In my support group, it's upsetting to hear from people who are being treated like this. If you are very ill, you can't work.
I am appealing at the moment.
It makes you feel awful, when you are ill and have to fight for your benefits. All your mental energy goes on that and can leave you feeling exhausted0
