Once more unto the tribunal.

After my adjourned tribunal for DLA, for a medical report, I have one today at 3PM.
(Initial claim for chronic fatigue last Jan, tribunal adjourned Nov, report in Dec)
Finally plucked up the courage to read the report, and it's moderately 'good' - though depressing to read it all in words, hence why I've been putting it off.
As I understand the criteria, I believe I'm eligible for mid-rate care, and high-rate mobility.
What the tribunal will decide of course is another matter entirely!
Phoning the taxi in a bit, as I'm not going to be able to handle the bus today.

Totally unsure.
They weren't actively hostile, had seemingly read the ~10 pages of documents I supplied,
Took 27 minutes, so says my handy recorder.
They're posting the decision out to me - so I guess Thursday.
Then I either dance around the room and promptly fall over, or request a statement of reasons and start writing my appeal.0
