Hi. I am already in receipt of DLA, higher rate mobility, lower rate carers. I have just recently been diagnosed with Cervical Spondylosis (Osteoarthritis of the spine) which is causing me excruciating headaches, nausea and spine pain. Some days I can cope with this and can function to a degree other days I am unable to do anything or even leave the house. I am unable to hold down a job because my health is unpredictable. I lost a temporary job just last week because the day I was due to start I had awful headaches, neck pain and sickness. My dilemma is this, I don't see the point of signing up for Job Seekers as I cannot commit to a job but having looked at the ESA route on a "Bad Day" my symptoms would possibly score highly but on other days I would not score at all. Please can anyone suggest what I can do.
