Mandatory reconsideration.

But surely I'm entitled to wrag element for the previous 38 weeks after assessment stage ?? I've asked for someone else to phone and explain.

Teresa wrote: Hi, today I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia, along with my other problems. I'm just wondering whether this will enable me to ask to be moved to support group or maybe reapply as I cannot work due to such chronic pain and am in wrag group but do not receive money. Thankyou yet again
