Health assessment.

Hi all. I had a visit from DWP last week to see if I am still suffering with RA. So the person that came took half an hour to find me from the car park next door to my flat then told me that this appointment was meant to have been done in May. anyhow she got her paper work out and said well I don't know why they have sent me here as it is clear that you are suffering and not able to do much for your self. With that she said she would complete the work at home and I have nothing to worry about and she leafed. So I am now waiting for my ESA to restart as it was suspended last mouth.

hi nononomoreheels I am feeling much better now I know my health is not as bad as it could be

You have my sympathy and hope your ESA is restored but this hardly surprises me. When I went to take in my "unfit note" I was told they didn't need it as I was on PIP and said I should have been told about it. Typical DWP and ATOS neither of them told me but woe betide you if you are 1 day late with them and they come down like a ton of bricks, I just wish I could throw a few back at them for their ongoing incompetence. They have managed to make a dogs dinner of the entire welfare system that is so complicated even their own staff don't know what the rules are, I am better qualified now than they are and can point out the conflicting rules and ministerial lies as a result of them. Hope you get it back soon and trust you had a witness with you at the time, I always point this out as what they say isn't what usually happens, hopefully I am wrong this time.

Hi All, Is anyone interested in helping me do a You Tube video of how I improved my terrible O.A. really would have cured it if were not for some difficult personal circumstances? I believe and have been told that RA is same/similar to OA so any RAs interested would be welcome.

You need to do your research then and stop spamming.

RA has no cure and is potentially fatal and is the immune system attacking itself.

OA is stiff joints through wear and tear.

Take your quack cures and do one

To Gaymma,

Madam, my offer is sincere and Free I simply want others to be without the terrible OA pain as I now am because people helped me without charge.

RA is not same or similar to OA. If you think you can cure OA, then you need to apply for the medical Nobel Prize for 2017.

Please don't advertise on this site. It's not a nice thing to do.
