I had my medical today at Atos and after only around a minute I was told I am being placed into the support group. Thanks so much for your advice it has been invaluable.

Great news C,
That must be a record, 1 minute, WOW, did they get as far as confirming your name, they must have just been checking that you weren't a figment of their imagination, LOL
Did you have to attend a centre or was it a home assessment?.
Would you mind giving some info regarding your condition ?, if not I understand.
Anyway, really pleased for you.
cheers

Hi Charlie
Well done. I'm sure you must be relieved.
Personally I would have been furious with Atos for wasting my time calling me in for a one minute medical. I don't think the ADA should be paid a fee for that.
Good luck for the future.

My appointment was at a medical center and was with a registered nurse, who wasn't foreign for a change.
It was a pleasant experience, probably because the women were pretty and the outcome positive.
I have Chronic PTSD, agoraphobia, and depression. The whole thing was a complete waste of time as her decision was made before I even sat down.
Why they dragged me in I do not know, how long this decision is for and whether I will be equally well treated I do not know either.
I hope I get the same nurse next time tho'
I applied for a home visit but was refused, I do not know why considering the immediacy of her ultimate decision. Maybe my appearance swung it?
Thanks to all who offered congrats.
