Hi Everyone,
I had my ATOS Medical yesterday, it was a "nurse" that i saw, he took my blood pressure, is that a normal procedure?
last time in 2010 i had a medical and i never had my blood pressure taken.
he said my blood pressure was up (probably due to anxiety)

Its up to the assessor if they take your BP, some will, some wont.
I think they like to pretend they are really doing something medical, and thats about the limit of what they are allowed to do...[greenhighlight]but it matters when the most senior politician in the land is happy to use language and examples that are simply not true.

The impact of this is to stigmatise people on benefits,
and we should be deeply worried about that[/redtitle](house of lords debate, talking about Cameron)0
