I just attended the ESA MEDICAL, can anyone advise was created by siobhan
Hello to everyone.
I attended my ESA Medical today. When I arrived the initial assessor told me that they did not have my Capapbility for Work self assessment form!!
Rather confused and worried as you can imagine...
When i started to explain my Medical history
*Fibromyalgia
*Central Nervous System Demyelination (Probable early presentation of MS)
*Anxiety/ Depression. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
I was told I would need to see a doctor (Initial assessor was a nurse)
So I waited...
Doctor SEEMED quite nice, although I did feel that I wasn't being heard...
Anyway I was soo tired that I forgot to ask how long approximately I will have to wait to hear anything regarding a decision...
Any ideas?
Thank you in advance.

Siobahn,
It cant differ greatly. I had my medical and got the result and placed in the SG in under 2 weeks,but we all know it can take longer.
When I came out of mine I just thought what is done is done, nothing could do until I got the result.
I totally understand that every case is different,I just totally put it out of my mind as worrying would have made me a lot worse.
Either way, I wish you well.
