You could go back through the ESA Claim guides (make sure you look at the right ones), to make you think about how you might answer questions about your condition(s).
Read through your submission and evidence, perhaps hi-light, the points that you think are important and would want to talk about, given the opportunity.
Think about what you might include in a a short final statement.
Try not to worry
as if 
Best of luck

Hi Kelly,
Can I ask how long you have had to wait between lodging your appeal and the tribunal date on the 20th February?
Good luck.

Hi S,
K is not online at the moment, and may of course answer your query when she logs in once more.
Looking back at K's previous posts, it seems that the original adverse decision was circa April 2012, see :
www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/forum?view=top...id=10&id=96583#97384
The wait for an appeal hearing can vary regionally, and of course when you initially submit an appeal, you will first receive a reconsideration by a different DWP DM. The reconsiderations are taking weeks if not months in some cases at the moment, so it's hard to say.
If the adverse decision that K appealed was circa April 2012, it would not be out of the ordinary for the appeal hearing date to be February 2013, a matter of 10 months, see :
How long to hear an appeal?

Hi bro8
Do you know if a claimant can expect to be informed by the DWP if the reconsideration of a FTW decision has been unsuccessful, or do they simply pass everything over to the Tribunal service and the first the claimant then hears about it is when the appeals bundle drops through their letterbox?

Hi S,
Yes, if the adverse decision that is appealed is not changed at the automatic reconsideration stage, the claimant should be informed of this in writing. The appeal should then be sent forward to The Appeals Tribunal Service by The DWP, and you should receive an Evidence Pack. (bundle)
