Just wondering as in regards to ESA descriptors. Has anyone been able to score points for example .....poor concentration caused by severe bilateral Tinnitus?
What I'm trying to say is how can one apply this illness / condition to some of the ESA descriptors.
I think the mental health descriptors would accommodate Bilateral Tinnitus as a condition to score some points due to the mental stress and depression it causes a claimant.
I'm trying to put this into words for my coming next ESA review.
I have known many claimants who have included Tinnitus in their claim as part of their condition but I have never seen points awarded for this.
Forum members may know differently, I personally have suffered from tinnitus for many years, some days are better than other, the problem I have with tinnitus is background noise, if it is noisy then I cannot hear what is being said especially when attending meetings and people are talking over each other.
