Road to Diagnosis...

Ok, had my phone assessment. 
I get discussed in the weekly meeting tomorrow, and will get a letter saying Yay or Nay in a couple of weeks.

If it's a yes, then it'll be an 8 MONTH wait.

This is Norfolk/Suffolk btw.

As it's something which isn't registering in my mind as important for me to know (In my head I already know) I don't feel anxious or annoyed with the long wait at all.

I'm just... :|

  • Hi Chewie,

    I had an assessment at home first, and was told I could wait up to a year.  In the end, I got the diagnostic appointment about 10 months later.  This is in Kent.  Boy, did those months drag past!  All worth it in the end, though.  Like you, though, I was convinced about it all way before then.  The diagnosis was the icing on the cake.

  • totally hear ya. just need it rubber-stamping for the NTs, and also cover my own *** if I ever wanna get a dip back into work as a FTE.

  • im perma-lancing atm, financially rewarding but 2hr commute is a killer. need to cover all bases. in case i decide i've had enough and need more 'security'

  • I've worked full-time for most of my working life.  My current job, though, is part-time - but permanent.  I work 4 days a week.  30 hours.  It's low paid, but I make enough - just - to cover everything.  It suits me now.

    What did Mr Micawber say?  'Annual income 20 shillings, annual expenditure 19 shillings and 6 pence.  Result - happiness.  Annual income 20 shillings, annual expenditure 21 shillings.  Result - misery!' Slight smile
