I hope you all are not to badly off with the weather, I know maybe some of you have lost electric.

But, I would very much appreciate pocket duties on Wednesday. I have the dreaded Atos Medical down at Hastings. I am already a nervous reck.
My Tony is driving me down there, but obviously going in on my own.

So, pretty please, give me some encouragement.

    I just wanted to say a big thankyou to all of you. It does mean so much.

    I went to the doctors this morning and thankfully she has given me a steroid injection into my elbow. So I have only just come on here. And she has refered me to physio which I start on the 6th April, at a sport centre would you believe.

    One thing I would like to ask you all, are you allowed to take someone in with you on your appointment at the medical thingy.

    I hope the steroid injection helps.
    Yes, you can take someone in with you, in fact, I think it's advisable to do so.
    Good luck.

    Thanks to all of you. It's over now, thank goodness. She was a lovely lady. We just have to wait for the result but she said not to worry about it. Tony came in with me,so I have his hand to hold. I didn't realise that they contact your doctor too.

    Anyway, now I am warn out. And at least I was able to claim the petrol money back and the parking as well.

    Shall let you know, once I know. Keep your fingers crossed for me wont you.

    Hi Karen

    Sorry I didnt get on here, but I was thinking of you and in your pocket via the cafe :wink:

    Well-done girl it's done now and no amount of worrying will change the outcome so rest up and relax.

    My fingers will be crossed for you

    love

    I'm sorry too I didn't realise you had an ATOS medical. I would be nervous too as they sound like an ordeal and Hastings was a fair way for you to travel.

    I'm glad that part is now over and hope they find in your favour as they should.
