Medical exemption certificate

[wobelyjohn]

Has anyone had any experience of medical exemption certificates is ataxia one of the conditions that entitle you to one

Hi wobelyjohn

I looked on patient.co.uk and if you search for free/reduced cost prescriptions

it lists those eligible.

Ataxia isn't specifically mentioned. But if you can't go out without assistance,

that seems to make a difference.

Also, anyone on low income is exempt. xB

Hi wobelyjohn

I don't really have anything to add to Beryl's excellent advice. Except maybe ask/discuss it with your GP.

Best Wishes

I'v e got an NHS exemption card which means I don't have to pay for prescriptions.This has been useful as all sorts of medication have been tried for my Ataxia-no joy.The Dr arranged it for me.

Why do people think because your disabled you get things free Not True
