[QUOTE="Karl Fenn, post: 334419, member: 53352"] Sorry to hear of your problems with the DLA, I'm sure you have the right to appeal or failing that you can send in a new claim, there are a number of other benefits you could apply for, check out the government websites and diffirent benefits you can claim, I know diabetes on it's own does not entitle people to benefit authomatically, but if you have had other complications and major operations that have left you with after effects you may be able to claim somthing, at the moment all benefits are being subject to cuts, some diabetics on the new back to work schemes have had the money stopped for not looking hard enough for work, not a good sitiuation with diabetes, the main problem now is the number of diabetics is expected to reach 5 million, the government are looking at the cost factor and whether it is sustainable in this economic climate, making cuts to benefits, diabectics appear to now be falling into a group that makes automatic right to benefits difficult. Carl. [/QUOTE]
