My question is what it says on the tin?

Can you claim without a diagnosis for ESA/UC and without medical evidence?

Obviously you tick the box which means they can contact your GP. But either way I’m wondering if this is the case.

Hi AnxiousAnonymous

You can claim ESA/UC without diagnosis and without medical evidence but whether you would be successful would depend on how you completed the form and how your assessment went.

We couldn't. They love a paper trail so get working on getting that together, ie; letters from consultants if you have any, if not then start making doctors appointments so you can get a referral to consultants. Because we found without those paper trails we didn't have a hope in hell of ever getting anything. It does mean you have to put the effort in.
