Hi there, migrating from ESA support group to UC - I just wanted to check about medication.

The form asks if you're recieving or expecting to recieve medical treatments - does this include listing all medications you're prescribed, or is it just things like physio, surgeries, therapy etc?

Thanks so much and solidarity to everyone out there.

Hi Sowandgrow

As you are in the Support Group UC staff should not be questioning your health. So to a question asking what treatment I would answer " treatment ". They cannot trigger a WCA nor can a Work Coach request one as an act of retribution.

Thanks David, the question about treatments is on the initial migration claim form - you would just fill in 'treatment' there and nothing else?

I had to submit my claim yesterday (was having a last minute muddle), and I already included all my meds, reviews and things I'm on waiting lists for etc. 😖

I hope I've not given them too much information... it's done now so I'll just have to cross my fingers and stand my ground if they try anything. Thanks for reinforcing that this shouldn't trigger an assessment.

I haven't had a WCA for a long time, so I've been wondering if I may be flagged for one after migration in response to having drawn attention to myself...

Thanks for all the advice and support - if I get anything untoward back I'll be sure to post. If it all goes smoothly I'll also report back for other members.
