Hi
I had my ESA medical yesterday, the doctor finished by saying he will tell job centre plus that I am unfit to work and as I have a severe condition he needed no more details of my condition. Does this mean I will stay in the support group and ESA continue. Apologies if this is a silly question it's just I was shocked when he gave me a decision at the end of my assessment.

I think you should be cautious in accepting the assessors comments, they may well have been genuine, but it is not the assessors place to tell the claimant about a "decision", they do not make the Decision, the DWP do.

That said, it seems likely that you will not be found Fit for Work, but you will have to wait and see whether you remain in the SG or not.
