Got date for ESA Medical!

Hi there I received a letter last week to attend medical for ESA tomorrow. The last one I had was in Oct last year and the doctor advised she thought I would be fit for work in 3 months maybe less!!!! My GP couldn't believe it, applied for DLA and was refused so think that has triggered this new medical. Once again into the breach-will let you know how I get on. Good luck to everyone facing one of these.

Hi fibrofog

Hope it all goes well for you.

Well had my medical,wasn't great by the time I got there and was really upset thought I was going to be sick at one point, the nurse had to go and get me a drink. Got through it but by the time it got to the copy what I do excercises I was in too much pain so he ended the medical-don't know if that will go against me-time will tell. Will post how I get on when I receive the dreaded envelope!

Twinkle, how frustrating for you!!! I hope it goes well when the time comes!

Wee update, got letter today confirming ESA, have again been put in the WRAG group, think I should be in support group but as I have a DLA appeal in and am in the middle of preparing a letter asking for permission to appeal to the Upper Tribunal on a previous DLA refusal I might just accept this for now!!! Considering the doc at my ESA last year advised I would be ready to return to work in three months maybe less then I am happy enough that this has been discredited

Hi Fibrofog

So sorry to hear that you've been put into WRAG and not Support group. But don't give up the good fight, we mustn't let them grind us down!
My medical is tomorrow, so going to spend some time today going over my ESA Questionnaire.
I'll keep you posted.
