Hi Everyone, First time I've posted on here so bear with me please!!

I attended my medical a few months back and was then subsequently placed from the ESA Support Group into the Work Related Group. I've contested it and am now at Tribunal Stage in early February. I've been assisted by my local CAB representative.

I can't tell you how stressful this has been for me. It seems as if its been hanging over my head for years rather than just a few months.

My health issues are loads of metal in my Cervical Spine, front and back which cause me such incredible discomfort daily. The headaches are off the charts. I'm on so much medication which in itself has created issues of it s own ie: enormous weight gain!

If anybody can help me or even guide me through, I'd be ever so grateful.

Thanks all, Sharon

Welcome to the forum.

Have you actually requested an appeal?

To be placed in the Support Group you will need to meet at least one of the SG Descriptors, these are listed in the ESA Claim guide on the following link.

Have yo discussed this with your CAB advisor?

Who is producing your submission for the hearing?

Have you received the DWP evidence bundle yet?

If you can provide us with more information by replying to this post then we will do our best to help.
