Hey skibadee,
Am sorry to hear things aint going so great for you a the mo but its great new that your scare was good news and not bad news.
Have you thought about calling payplan and explaining this situation to them see what they say if they can bring it down for you at all.
Good luck hope someone will be along shortly to give you some more info

I know this will sound a bit contraversial.
In the DMP topic it has come up in the past that the levels that CCCS give you to live on are a little more generous than what Payplan say. I have no personal experience with either I do my own but maybe if you feel up to it could be worth a chat with the opposition so to speak!0 -
Hey Skibadee,
So pleased your biopsy came out good, that must be a weight off your mind.
Maybe if you could post your SOA on here the fabulous brains that make up the users of this forum may be able to pick over it and see if/where you may be able to make some savings/cutbacks.
Otherwise, as Lisabell has suggested, maybe you should contact CCCS. Sorry I don't really know anything about DMP's as I am holding my own atm (crossed fingers).
Here's a link to a recommended site for you to complete your SOA should you wish:-
