Hi I've been to my tribunal it was so bad no one should go through that..the question they where bothered about was .. if I could make some toast. And driving a car .. there are so many disabled people driving that's why you can get a car on mobility and if iv been to hair dresses because i had my hair cut i had my hair cut cos it was very long and matted they could not get a brush through it.. i felt i had no right to do any thing i could no speak well because my head was pounding they said they believed what was wrong With me .but it's how it affects me . I do not think they could see I was in so much pain , iv been in my bed since the depression is so bad this is not an experience we should be going through. I no i will not get it the doctor was rolling her eyes she was looking down on me sorry for the wintering

These tribunals are so difficult it is like going on trial by judge and jury. Do hope the impression they gave Younis wrong and that you do in fact have a good outcome.x

A doctor rolling her eyes is unforgivable--- so unprofessional.

I'm so sorry you had to go through this,

Hi Corycory,

I fully understand and sympathize with you. I have been to one before and it was horrible.

I would rather stick needles in my eyes than have to endure another one.

Hopefully you get a good outcome.
