I would like to think it unlikely, that my husband be declared fit for work - he has been told, that his Physio (though he cant attend due to his blackouts - he gets home aids from them etc), Rhumo consultant, specialist Nurse and his GP have all said due to his many health probs is most def NOT fit for work - ATOS will say he is (he's in bed at the moment in chronic pain).
One question has come up concerning this 'Fit for Work' ruling - he has been told that if they put him in a certain grp, after one year his benefits will cease due to non payment of National Insurance - problem, he gets a pension (Civil Service) on which NI is applied, how would it work for him, obviously we will appeal if he is not put into the support grp, he actually fits into 4 of the WHO Illness groups, but that wont worry ATOS/DWP will it?
