I have a client who has a condition which means she vomits unpredictably. She does so on average once or twice a day. She has also a level of pain.  This condition would make it exceptionally difficult to work but on the face of it she does not meet any of the descriptors.  Any suggestions?  Ruth Knox, RAISE Benefits Advice Team, Liverpool
