    That's really good news. I only wish I have the same luck, although I doubt it!

    thats good news velcy
    it happened to my hubby, they wanted him to go for the medical
    and he could not go, he needed a home visit.
    they asked for the doctor to write to them and then atos sent a letter out
    saying he wont be having a medical and he is in wrag group.
    its very stressful good luck linni.

    I was transfered without a medical to the support group, its more common than you think because the success stories dont brag about it where as the people who think they have been wronged shout it from the roof tops.
