Positive news :-)

Just wanted to share with everyone some positive news, especially as I have seen a recent post about the fear of losing one's job - I did lose my job, after 1 years sickness, they made me redundant - well with brilliant support, I took my old employers to court for unfair dismissal based on disability discrimination, and based on any appeals, I have won my case :-) yayyyyyyyy happy days, the little person won :-)))

So for anyone suffering the same, go for it, be strong, and stand up for the little person, you can do it, and we can get the message across, we do not need to be mistreated.

Smiles everyone

Lesley

That was really good news!

I can understand that you feel proud of yourself. You should be.

Many of us around the world with APS have had to take a fight for our Health and have been discriminated in different ways.on the way to a right diagnose.

That does sound very encouraging. Congratulations! I'm under a union and haven't been made redundant or sacked yet but they might let me go when they see the next OH report. He suggests a review September but no guarantee they won't just let me go. Be a year in September I've been off. I've had to complain to patient liaison team at local hospital about misdiagnosis which has delayed my treatment plus the attitude of a particular consultant.Well done its so frustrating.
