ESA form

Hi I've been on dla and incapacity since 2001, my dla is indefinitely but guess at some point I will have to go through changes with that.

In 2013 I had to reapply for the esa, I had to fill the esa 50 form in and was down for a medical straight away . Be time I'd sent the form off a few weeks later I got a letter to say I didn't have to attend the medical ,due to my doctors report . I was put in the support group ,I thought that was the end of it all over with.

I have now received another form to fill out, i have been waiting to see citizen advice which I saw yesterday . My doctor told me a lady came into the surgery , I booked a appointment told the lady who booked it for me what it was regarding .

Went yesterday to be told from the cab lady she didn't have time to fill it all out ,now putting me into a panic as it needs to be back by 2nd December.

She filled a few answers in for me and then said oh you can fill the rest out yourself . The part I'm unsure on is the yes, no, or unsure and how they word things I've done the test you have on line and it has come out saying how did you assess yourself ?

Did you assess yourself as being eligible for the support group on the grounds of;
a)exemption;NO
B)Descriptors: YES
C)Exceptional circumstances YES
D)Hospital treatment YES

WHICH GROUP WOULD YOU BE PLACED IN?
Based on your self-assessment: 'you will be placed in the support group exceptional circumstances. Because of your physical or mental health condition or learning disability,there would be a substantial risk to the mental or physical health of any person, including you,if you were found not to have limited capability for work-related activity.

Work related activity group, POINTS you assessed yourself as being eligible for the work-related activity group because you scored 15 or more points.

You assessed yourself as scoring a total of 120 points for the following etc etc.

I'm I ok with the points to stay on the support group on the above.

I'm waiting to have another operation to have a nerve root stimulator fitted but no guarantees whether it will help or not .

Sorry for the long message.

Hi dawny,
