Question:

Why is dla taking so long ,my application was received on the 20th march 07?

an accident at work in Dec 2000 has got worse by the day and i have been seeing a consultant orthapaedic surgeon ever since and after numerous physio sessions and hydro pool appointments i was sent for a mri scan (Sept 06) and this showed a degenerative disc bulge at L5/S1 which is trapping the nerve and causing pain in lower back, legs and testicles, my toes are also constantly numb in my left foot. in march of this year i had a Discograph (ouch) another appointment to see the surgeon and he said sorry cant help you. i have worked full time up until Dec 06 when i started taking time off as the pains are getting unbearable, then last week another bombshell redundancy. i am taking a lot of medication just to get me through the days and nights but worry about money etc is causing other problems. i found out about dla just recently and applied. i got a copy of the medical report off my DR but it seems like he has left things out . i have industrial inj ben for life due to acc. any help ?
