I am so sorry.  I am sure they have their own agenda in fact after seeing some secret recordings on a TV programme last year I am convinced they do.

Really go through their assessment with a fine tooth comb as if you can find some big mistakes like medication being recorded wrong or them not asking relevant questions about what is actually wrong with you you might be on a winner at Tribunal.  For example the assessor kept on asking questions about my husband's physical problems and ignored his mental problems which was the reason he wasn't working.  She also recorded all his medication dosages wrong even though she had been given his green and white prescription form to copy and keep.

Chin up get help, contact Janet at Fibromyalgia Action UK if you can't get help locally.  Let us know how you get on with things.x

You are not alone in that sadly. I know I was disgusted by my completed form for assessment. It appeared that someone else must have been in the room as it certainly wasn't me. Rosewine has given good advice. Any 'mistakes' may go in your favour 🐸

There was so many lies and omissions in the medical report that I thought that I had received the wrong paperwork. There was enough errors that I had to write a 4 page letter to cover just the major ones. Then they claimed that they never go this letter. :(
