i am on jobseekers here in london and have diabetic complications including nerve damag e to my feet and a retinal bleed in the left eye requiring a vitrectomy.i can not live on fifty quid a week and cant really get a job as i am to all practical purposes disabled;my doctors are not giving any encouragement to claim disability as the only evidence visible at present is the haemohorrage in my eye
the eye clinic was goin g to sign me off as partially sighted;i am likely to face a number of retinal attachments on both eyes
i have booked a session wiht cab but want ot know wat are mychances and could i get a freedom pass?
are they likely to suspend my existing benefit while they check out my claim
i particularly any specialist disability advice
i feel badly let down by my doctors

The forms to claim disability ask how it affects every day etc.Best place is your local Citizens advice, they will advise you on everything
