Well folks the DWP believe that i may be fit enough to work, which I find very humourous. I have turnred down two jobs this month alone each with a £1500 a week wage. So I reallt need to to stay on benifits to live. What a joke and the whole system is CRAP and don't we know it. I shall let you all know the outcome. As the last one went to tribunal which was only aboiut 6 month ago.

    I have had OA since mid twenties. It affects my hips and knees. I had a THR on the left aged 30 and now have a resurface-replacement on the right - done May 2010.

    Your first ATOS was one of the first I read about and you were rightly angry about the outcome. I remember all your appeals(and for DLA) and was pleased with the final outcome.

    So now we are back full circle and the circus starts again....

    Hope all goes well for you today. It is an experience attending an ATOS medical. I think its a shame for the Docs ATOS use, they obviously cant get a "proper" job so they have been reduced to this. (only joking)
