Had my 3rd oh appointment this morning and been told that they are recommending IHR through the foreseeable future of 9 months off I'm awaiting on spinal surgery. I know that I will get 34 weeks pay plus pilon of 12 weeks. How long does royal mail take to sort this out.

Mate I feel your pain. I couldn't send you a private message.
I had my first call by a nurse who really asked for permission to contact doc. The 2nd one was a doc who went through all the bollocks that had been sent to them from my doctors and said I should be referred for ihr but bollocks I said at that time. The one I have had on Monday 12/08/19 was the final one where the referral was sent to the big wigs.
And that's me I have got a date to finish on the 24th.
Wish you all the luck. But keep an eye on your pay out have a workout first and question it if it's wrong I have mine all worked out just incase they try to screw me over pal

Cheers for that mate like i said had a call with a nurse took loads of info you know the drill, didn't ask for for my medical records from my GP, she said the doctor should make the decision next week. Even though she did say initially she doesn't foresee me returning to work.
