hi stickman 1992.yes my form is the same dla80,my problem is getting medical evidence i was discharged by all consultants several years ago,being told my condition was serious and nothing could be done,and would just have to live with it,i have seen my g.p every 2-3 months to review my meds but he also said the same,i-e you cant replace neck and spine.maybe someone could advise me on best course of action i need to take.phoned ageuk this morning to get help filling in the form but they dont do it anymore,lack of funds and staff.cheers.
