Thanks for your help. I

I provided in the region of 70 additional pages with the claim form, explaining my partners illnesses and the effect it had on him in so much detail. It really made me angry when I discovered the a-z of medical conditions as this corroborates the information I gave but which was subsequently ignored/disregarded.

Thank you again


Good Luck bb, :)

Please let us know how things progress.

I have now received a copy of the information that my doctor provided. Although they were asked to complete the report with regard to specific named medical conditions, our doctor has not done this. Our doctor has only written about a couple of the conditions.

What should we do about this?

many thanks

Have you spoken to your GP about the report? Would they be willing to write to the DWP with the missing information?

If they will help you then this should go a long way to resolving the problem, although you may be asked about the discrepancy at any appeal hearing.

If the GP is not prepared to assist, then you are going to have to look at alternatives, have you thought about requesting your medical records?
