Good evening lovelies

I had a kidney transplant a few years ago and the quality of it is deteriorating and I’m beginning to feel the effects of this which is also having an impact on my attendance at work. I don’t have a full time contact with work due to my body being so unpredictable with having SLE I believed the best decision was for me to continue as bank but complete full time hours. Now, I’ve been having to cancel a few shifts over the weeks which effects my wage and I’m finding it difficult.... with the new changes to the benefit later system it has me worried for where I would stand if I was to claim? And what help is out there to help guide me in the right direction to do so and to be sure I apply for the right support?

Ps

I still receive DLA medium and low rate.

TIA
