Should I tell my new job, only been written to, telling me they want to employ me, I have fibromyalgia and it is a disability I'm scared they will change their minds once I fill all the medical forms

Well, you aren't legally obliged to, so it would depend what impact it has on you, and whether you need them to make any adjustments or not.

What sort of job is it, will it affect your health, do you need adjustments, flexible working, extra breaks, hosputal appointments etc.

I always put on application ‘prefer not to say’

I have an appointment in July with occupational health for new employment job just going though but get the impression is vaccines lead.

I feel I can do the job with/without foot stool and I can hide my compression if need be.

I’ce only had one interviewer (private sector) I caught looking at my compression and they weren’t someone I’d want to work for.
