[QUOTE="Essexboy10, post: 1065771, member: 271654"] Can anyone help me please.... I was offered employment with a large rail company and then after several months of waiting for a start date was advised that they have retracted the offer due to my medical condition - type 1 diabetes. I had attended two medical assessments which I passed but with restricted duties. I have now gone down the legal route of fighting this under the grounds of Disability Discrimination but now being asked to complete a questionnaire to justify my disability. I have had diabetes now for 16 years and I have had to adapt my life so a lot of things I do now are second nature. So when being asked to put into words how this is justified as a disability Im finding hard to put in down on paper. Has anyone else had this problem who can maybe help me. please [/QUOTE]
