esa appeal

Thanks Gordon appreciate the advice, and yes I was found fit for work which is why I appealed, so was just wondering why im being awarded esa until jan 2017 if they said that iam fit for work in their opinion, I just don't know what to think , the whole process has broken me more than my illness .Do you think they've made a decision without the appeal going ahead? Hate phoning them up, your made to feel like you shouldn't be ill., sorry just how I feel everytime I talk to them, thanks again for any advice.

Thank you Gordon, your a star, I ll phone them and let you know how I get on if that's ok? Once again thank you for all your and fellow moderators advice and helpful words, otherwise I wouldn't know where to start.

Hi there everyone, hope everyone well and not in too much pain.Hope someone can throw some light on this for me, I have just had a letter saying iv been placed in support group, my appeal was to be heard on the the 27th june? , does that mean they've have came to a decision without the appeal going ahead? and also ,it states that the decision is from the 10/1/16 , when this nightmare began for me,! does that mean I will be due support group backdated pay from that date or todays date ,when I got this letter? My rheumatologist said she would support my appeal with a letter, im assuming this did the world of good as she was very supportive of my plight and couldn't believe I was being put through the wringer with all this stress, and on top of my many medical problems was being told to look for a job, I can barely walk,and most days my hands and arms don't work because of the excruciating pain! Anyway hope someone can shine some light on what I do now, I live alone and have been crushed and broken by all of this, I don't know what to do now, thanks to anyone in advance who can help.
