"hi i am pleased to find a site that gives information on the dla review, i sent my dbd551 form back on 7th january, i have been waiting for news for a few weeks, so i rang the dla phone number and they told me that they were still waiting for a reply from my doctor at "my London" clinic, they said that they had been in touch with "my London clinic" and that because the clinic were inundated with these forms that it would take longer than usual to hear from them,it is so stressful waiting for a reply, i can only hope that when news comes it is good news, though somehow i feel that most people will have to reapply.i am so pleased that you have set up this forum where people can at least be kept informed, keeep up the good work,"
Edited to maintain confidentiality. This very much reflects the experience many clinics are facing unfortunately.
Look if your local council provides HIV services. You can find out from your local council website. Otherwise ask in your clinic if they can recommend an avenue of help for you.
HIV medics are having a hard time also with this review. They have a legal duty to provide accurate information. For them. Knowing you so well as their patient. They worry that what they might write. May have a negative effect on your current entitlement. However there report is interpreted by the DWP who are often not as specialised medically. Your medic is on your side.
Thanks to the originator of the emailed comment.
I welcome all feedback. It is only together that we will help each other.
