Had my ESA medical assessment on 18th Feb and got my reply today.
I have Fibromyalgia, a cyst on my left ovary a lesion on my liver and ESA have decided that I am fit for work.
If anyone knows of anywhere that will employ me please. i need the toilet between 5 and 7 times a day and may have to go home to change if i do not get to the loo in time (which frequently happens - i got 6 points for this). my Fibro floors me so i will also need to have time off when i cannot get out of bed or walk or cannot stop shaking. I also need a job where i dont have to meet or talk to new people as i have issues in this area. I dont like change so the company will have to keep me doing the same thing all the time.
I am appealing against the decision that they say i am fit for work. I am so angry i will be in hospital in the next few weeks to have the cyst removed and as my intestines are all stuck together due to endometriosis i am not able to have keyhole surgery. i had my right ascending colon removed in 2006 as it was full of holes - but yes DWP i am fit for work - IDIOTS!!

Oh Layla what a mess. I have mental health problems and am awaiting my 2nd medical and fully expect to have to fight my corner as my kind of problems are harder to pin down if you know what I mean. It beats me how they can reach that conclusion about someone, like yourself, who has medical evidence of a physical condition.

I hope you find the strength to keep fighting with an appeal.

It really is feeling like it's "them against us" isn't it?

My thoughts are with you. :)
