Hi tracy, change your doctor hun. i was told for 15 years there was nothing wrong with me. i changed my doctor and was diagnosed with fibro and lupus. Find a doctor that understands fibro. stand up for yourself and believe what your body is telling you. good luck x

Hi huni, I've just posted my forms to, you best post them asap as government is changing and they may stop the benefit to all people whoes lives are not at risk! This new law starts onapril the 1st, any forms that havent been read/ processed before this date will have very little chance in claiming the dla, also people who are on dla will be contacted and brought in for medicals. It's horrendous! If your doc will nit support you and you are no longer taking meds than I'm afraid it doesn't look good. You do need to change your doctor, I find that white white female doctors know the most about fibro and are best at helping you. Good luck x
