True, but it's not always easy to obtain the right information from GPs and consultants personally, especially in the short timescale you have before you have to send the forms back.
Sometimes letters from GPs could hinder your chances of a fair assessment. Some think because they have a serious illness or disability they don't think they need to supply any info because you do put down the details of your GP and consultants on the form thinking it's up to them to contact the relevant people.

An observation on these kinds of threads / topics is that if there's a chink in someone's opinion then there is the obvious arguments, mainly for the sake of just to score points on a public forum. But when anyone can't disagree with something then nothing is said. It's almost like ****ing in the wind.
That just doesn't apply for forums but in general. I don't believe that anything I can say or anyone else here makes the slightest bit of difference to opinions. I ain't dissing anyone here, just an observation of how it is or how it feels. Heart on sleeve an all that. Just highlighting how difficult it can be.
