Well i guess i will find out what sort of attitude there is officially soon as i got my phone call tonight to attend my medical assessment in leicester early march. They weren't happy because they wanted me to take an 08:30 slot and i asked if it could be later as i need to time to get moving and also because i live 16 miles away and public transport can be a bit spotty at best. Already expecting the "fit for work" part despite having two consultants and an old fashioned gp (getting a sick note out of him is like blood from a stone lol) stating in their opinion i am not and will not be fit for work barring a breakthrough in treatment for my condition.
