DLA claim. Consultant will not respond to request

I am so sorry to hear this. I do hope you will be able to feel well enough to claim again ( as you are not going to appeal). All the best, take care!

Just want to say thanks to everyone who posted helpful advice on this thread but I have decided not to continue with the appeal due to deteriation of my health.

The stress of this matter, the constant rejections by the NHS and the lack of sleep and stress/depression caused by being in severe chronic pain has taken it's toll on my physical and mental health and last night I collapsed at home and was taken to A&E.

Thankfully I was able to come home this morning but this is obviously a warning that I need to slow down.

Thanks again.

I'd suggest that if you can manage it, it's worth sending in all the information you have togeter - maybe print excerpts from this thread - and requesting a 'paper' appeal tribunal.
This will just be the tribunal looking over the evidence you have submitted, and you don't need to attend.
Good luck.
