Refused DLA was created by pat55
Hi
I received DLA for a year and when it was time to renew I informed the DLA of changes. They sent a doctor to give me a medical and I explained that I have good days and bad days. My claim was refused so I asked them to look at it again and they again refused. Is there anyone I can go to for help with appealing the decision?
Thankyou
Pat

Hi I have been reading your note and it has
shown again that you should not tell them
if you have good days as well as bad they
take the view that your condition is not
causeing you problems and on the good days
you would be able to cope without help.
The illness you suffer from may be one
that can improve in some cases i sujest you
go through the info thats on the site to
see if there may be grounds for appeal. I
would also ask your GP for help and if you
are seeing a consultant ask them to write a
letter if they will. good luck regards
mike
