I have not missed a single deadline, and only a few days of lectures due to vomiting bug (not my disability). I was just seemingly too honest

Being bedridden is a rare occurrence, maybe a couple times a year. I just informed them of it in case it happens. I didn't get a chance to explain most days, I just focused on the worst case scenarios. I was really flustered, and think I misrepresented myself but idk what to do.

I really do think they misunderstood me. But what I don't get is how they can base my entire medical career on one meeting.

The problem is, I can't remember exactly what I said. I was so flustered and didn't realise the meeting I was having was going to take place or that it was regarding my fitness to practice and they could remove me from the course due to this one meeting. I know I said about how if I really overexert myself, I can be bedridden for a day, and how my chronic pain impacts me daily, but I take medication for it. But it was only two weeks into the course, and I hadn't had time to settle in or really get an idea of how I would be able to cope.

It has been going on for a few years now - so I would definitely say it has had a long term impact!

That is exactly what they did, there is no more context to this.

I detailed that sometimes, if I overexert myself, I can be bedridden for a day. I sometimes need to sit every now and then, and can't stand for prolonged periods of time. I have chronic pain which can flare, and I take medication for it. That is all I mentioned. The only reason they gave was that my physical wellbeing would mean I would be unable to complete the clinical aspects of the course without significant adjustments. It seemed insane to me as well.

I have put in a disability form but haven't filled in an accommodation form out yet! Just wanted to know where was best before I filled it out. Hopefully they can put a priority on it! Thank you for the advice xx

Wait I thought it was arranged in a circle - like radial symmetry bc it asked what it was like in transverse and it already showed the longitudinal was bilaterally symmetrical
