Your best bet would be to phone the practice manager at your last GB practice and talk to them.

They would require in writing which notes and correspondence you require.

It is not supposed to cost more than £20.00.

Best wishes,
Rachel

No, an MRI is not usual, having your blood pressure taken is usually as far as it goes, and that's only for a priveledged few :)

We probably have no more than a dozen members who are not resident in the UK, and we very rarely hear the results of their assessments, so we're really not in a postition to advise in anything other than what would happen here, however, it may be worth your contacting the DWP to confirm they are happy with this development.
