IB migration plus a rant

I’ve just had my ESA50 form through and after going through all the details on this site am going to fill it in carefully and use all the advice but I can honestly say I am dreading the inhuman process I know I am going to endure over the next few weeks and months. My condition has not changed, the operations and hospital treatments have not made me better, I am worse than when I first went on IB but I know ATOS will pass me as fit for work, as most ATOS customers are it seems by default. I really wonder if the DWP think my injuries I suffered, the chronic and acute pain I am in every day as a result of serving my country including my Industrial injuries award will deem me any more fit for work than last week or when I first became injured. I went through the whole complicated process of my service medicals deeming me unfit for work as did all the many subsequent DWP medicals and doctors panels I had to go through years ago, which I have to say I passed with flying colours with the promise of the last doctor, you will never have to go through a DWP medical again. Is it worth the pain, injuries and suffering serving our country? I wish I was that young man again as I would have had to say no it is not.
Sorry for the rant, but I just had to get the rant off my chest before I have to take more pain killers, some of the long list of which I take each day just to be pain free. And yes I can pick up and move an empty cardboard box.

Don't automatically assume that you will be denied ESA. We have a number of members who have gone directly into the Support Group without even a medical .
