report for others to see

I got a diagnosis earlier this year, and the report I received was contained mainly the things that we talked about during the assessment meeting, and a lot of the report contained excerpts from the personal history I wrote for the assessor. The final report was sent to my GP and I have an exact copy of it as well. I feel that the report is way too personal to give to employers, such as containing some embarrassing examples of my childhood. I'm not sure how to get a report that I can give to employers? I've heard that some clinics do give out a report that can be shown to others, but not every clinic does that. I'm not sure what to do when they ask for medical evidence. Thanks in advance if you can share any relevant experiences!

  • I had 2 reports one was very basic and the other was pages............ long. My Gp has access to both but sent the shorter version to my employer when requested.

    Like you I also wouldn't like just anybody to read my full report, as far as I'm concerned its for my eyes only and I will share it with only a very select few.

    like others have said couldn't you possibly go back to the place where you were diagnosed and ask for an 'abridged' version?
