If I were a registered drug addict, on the doses of medication I'm currently on, I would be deemed incapable of work. Purely on medication.
Now, I haven't received back word from the medical yet. I have no reason to believe I've passed because the point of the medicals is to fail people. The last time I ''failed'' the medical because the civil servant reading my notes failed to read the last page, where it said special circumstances (''suffers from serious disease: tick''), and sent the letter out saying I'd failed to meet the criteria.
It really, really depresses and worries me, this letter. Because I just know it's going to fail me, then I'll have to get involved in a battle to prove that I haven't recovered since the last time they passed me. In fact I've got worse, which is consistent with the much higher doses of medication I'm now on. All this while at the same time battling with my Doctor to get me the damn operation which would make me capable of work - thereby pleasing everyone, including myself.
A proper entry will follow this.
