Hi L,

With regards to "medien" you may wish to "google" it.

With regards to the ESA Forms/Reports that may give you the necessary imformation, see :

ESA medical – what forms to ask for?

ESA Forms

The ESA85 or ESA85A should definately include your "Prognosis", the expected length of your ESA award before reassessment.

Please see also :

How often will I be reviewed

If you view our FAQ's from here : FAQ’s

You will see that there is a wealth of information.

I did Google it, and I've always known the answer to "In the the Median" It means a patient for example, would have an average of......to live.
I don't know why those words were used for an ongoing chronic illness, not a life threatening illness like Cancer, where "the median is often used; And of course I have been through all the threads, but it doesn't arise there either, and so that's why I asked here on the forum if perhaps somebody had another take on the question.

Hi Gordon,"on average" is exactly that, but why put on my Atos medical report that I would not be fit for work "in the median", it just seemed to be the wrong wording, and of course confusing to a layman such as myself.
Thank you for your response, always appreciated.
