After weeks of worry I was re-awarded dla middle care and high mobility yesterday for 2 years.
Great feeling of elation until today when I got phone call saying I need medical for esa now.
Told them I cannot attend because of mobility and mental problems, so they are arranging home visit.
Terrified if I fail medical, does it mean you lose Dla also ? And is this normal procedure ?

Hi Gray
We have heard reports from members that one benefit can impact a review of another. Whether you would lose your DLA as a result of failing ESA, is not possible to say. You have said you have arranged a home visit for your ESA medical. For further information -
