[QUOTE="kitedoc, post: 1884657, member: 468714"] Hi [USER=32874]@cazzyann1[/USER], I cannot give you an answer from experience but I would suggest you find out what questions are asked in the assessment. You may already have answered your part but what questions the doctor is asked about you ? The questionnaires I have seen are from Australia where i live include activities of daily living such as toileting, showering, feeding and mobility etc. These questions are rated by difficulty and frequency as in showering assistance all the time, or is wheelchair bound or not etc. So if I was applying for disability on the grounds of hypo unawareness I would have difficulty giving sensible and appropriate replies and would see such questions as too selective or inappropriate to my disability. So I apologise for my round about answer but I do wonder if inappropriate questions and assessment procedures is at the heart of your lack of success. I hope someone replies with a more informed answer. Best of Wishes and Luck. [/QUOTE]
