    How horrible to wait while they sort out admin :( I'm so sorry you're having to go through this, Taxi, it just seems such a long time now.

    The support group thing is good - can they be of any help getting the PET scan sorted, or is it not that sort of support?

    The support group is to do with me being able to get sick pay again.It means that I will get paid for 12 months before needing another assessment
