I was awarded PIP last June after going to tribunal for a fluctuating condition. I have now been sent ESA50 to complete...does that mean I have to go through the whole process again before June for PIP? I am already starting to get panic attacks at the mere thought!!!

An ESA re-assessment will not trigger a new PIP re-assessment except by coincidence. You don't say when your current PIP award ends, the DWP are currently re-assessing most PIP claimants a year in advance of their award ending, so if your award ends in 2017 then I would expect you to be re-assessed this year.
