Hi sorry i did go to reply but the site was down and i have spent last few days in bed with the stress of it all i got there and they adjorned until a future date as they had not received a complete copy of my file (letters - only 1 side copied etc) and they didnt feel they had enough time to go through my case properly, all i could do was cry they were very nice though and said they would take the additional information i had received the day before from my nhs occuptional health ot which states i am unfit for any kind of employment in my current condition, so i am STILL waiting lol

Have you considered appealing the decision to dismiss you? I don't know the policy/procedure in the nhs re dismissal on health grounds but in local govt if all reasonable adjustments have been considered & will not make it possible for you to continue working then the employer has to consider ill health retirement. My employer dismissed me(I have CFS/ME)& I have lodged an internal appeal for unfair dismissal & a claim with the employment tribunal as my employer didn't follow its own policy & procedures & was in breach of the DDA & the ACAS code of practice. Under the LGPS it is also possible to apply for consideration for ill health pension months after having been dismissed May be worth looking into.
Best wishes
