hi..............

i have also been through this hoop and after the Atos medical i was also told i was fit for work as i only got 6 points under mental health....and i suffer from depression & anxiety plus mild emphysema.

i also appealed and i won it it without going to a oral hearing although i was placed in the wrong group but i have an appeal in for that also.

good luck and don't give up!
