I had my medical on the 13th March 13, still not heard anything back which is a good sign IMO. Normally they stop your money first, then you get the letter telling you what you already know.

Well I just got paid for the second time since the medical....just feeling very stressed not knowing this in turn making pain and fatigue worse ;( broadband I was in the medical for around an hour and I asked for the assessment to be recorded of which a copy was given to me, it was very stressful I am now just waiting and worrying ;(

As a rule they are always very efficient when it comes to stopping payments, that is why I think the longer you go without hearing from them, the better your chances.

Hi

I don't know if I would read too much into it to be honest, Atos are very bogged down at the moment and different areas of the country are taking more or less time. I sent my form in in August and only found out what group I was in in January this year, a 5 month wait.

I know it's very tempting to try and work out what's going on but until you get that letter through the door it's all speculation. With the introduction of PIP I think the situation will only get worse. But here's hoping you here very soon and it's all good.

Hi, after I went to the medical it took them about three and a half weeks, before a lady from Benefit office phoned me to tell me I had got no points and my money was stopping. After I picked myself up and asked her how comes I got no point even for pain while taking two types of morphine, she told me to appeal and she would send out the form and she also told me to put in a complaint to ATOS

So I think you may have to give it another week or so. One thing is for sure you will hear about the result good or bad

Hope it's a good result for you

Good luck Caroline
