I have an assessment coming Wednesday

β€’6 Replies

I bet you are all watching the football, I dislike football and even have it on, God only knows why.

Anyhow, I went a few days ago now to give blood for my diabetes, She did a prick test confirming my fears that I have Peripheral neuropathy which basically meaning the nerve damage in my feet and toes has become so bad that I now have no feeling response to the prick test at all. The GP filed a form out to occupational health for them to come out and access me for aids or help they can provide like a seat, a bath board and bedroom bed support to aid you getting in and out of bed, I need both these ideally but she also aids with getting a blue badge for my car which would help me greatly parking ect. I have some really strong supportive letters from various people including my carer who have all given great written advice and a full history of falls and disabilities while I was being looked after. so I feel nervous about consultation but in many ways, it means they can see me for what it really is and hopefully it all goes in my favour, it's next Wednesday so fingers crossed.
