I am confused and need a quick answer as I have appeal Tues and very busy tommorrow, my first day back after a long Xmas break. I knew I would pay for taking such a long one! Cl underwent spinal fusion 03/05 after 2 years sick. Failed PCA Jan 06 and did not appeal losing entitlement to IB. On visit to specialist 06/06 was advised not to do any work as set back in recovery noted. Cl subsequently submitted sick note from GP unfortunately 3 weeks within 6 month period. Refused as same condition. Cl appealed then later came to me. I am aware we need to prove a worsening of condition and I am confident of this as I have a good letter of support from specialist but will the PCA be applied at tribunal or can I argue this is not required. Or, will I be better off having this applied at tribunal to save cl having to attend one pretty soon, as I am sure will happen if appeal awarded. Does this make sense? Any advice would be appreciated as I must have emptied my brain cells into the bin with the Xmas wrapping paper.
