I'm afraid the forum does not support PM's

My award is already helping a lot, as I need a new super support mattress, after my other died, and I didn't have to worry that I would not be able to afford it. It is so wonderful not to have so much worry over affording aids for my health.

No tactics particularly neptuno, only keeping copies, really fully filling out the information boxes, sending all medical evidence papers, plus one from my spouse, and then sending it recorded delivery so they could not say they didn't get it.
I was given a face to face further from home than I could really manage with my M.E., had it changed and contacted my MP with my concerns that I might not do well at the interview under the circumstances.
I think the interviewer found my form a little overwhelming, because I had given so much information, which she had to plough through before seeing me. The form tells you that you that you don't need to fill the boxes, but I did and more.
