Got an ESA50 this morning, filled it in and sent it back.
Quite easy to fill in to be honest as my current condition means I am housebound so most of the questions were easy to answer.
Just a matter of waiting now to see if they dare 'send me' for a medical assessment.

LOL.
We will see what comes back. I wonder if they will send someone to assist me down all the stairs with my 'machine'?

Nothing they do or will do surprises me at all now.
My GP has already told me that if they ask me to attend a medical he will quite happily fax them a letter telling them to do a home visit as I cannot leave the house.
With all that has happened in the past year and the fact they are 'questioning' his professionalism has really got him, shall I say, miffed.
