Having a representative (CAB) with you does actually make a difference. Them being there means things are done more how they should be done.

Great news.

Hi, I won my appeal too back in March & I was put in the work related activity group too. I was so happy when the appeal went my way but now I just feel I'm being pressured all the time by the job centre to do courses & learn new skills. This stresses me out as I havnt worked for 20 years because of my fibro. Now I'm just wishing the time away till I get reviewed again

I have just been to my ESA tribunal and it was adjourned - so the medical evidence could be acquired and I could be given more than the 30mins I had been allocated, they said I needed an hour ?!

I had provided all of my hospital letters etc already and there were two bundles of papers, as well as a submission from a gentleman from the local Law Centre who had been assisting me.

I have also just been awarded PIP, at first time of asking, on 1st June, after a f2f and have Enhanced Daily Living and Standard Mobility ( I know this is not taken into account at the ESA tribunal, but the two assessments came so close together and had such widely differing results that I was told it was worth mentioning )

Has anyone else had any similar experience ? It is incredibly stressful and I suffer a variety of conditions, my primary one being RSD/CRPS which has disabled me for the past 23yrs. I can rarely leave the house now.

It's a never ending cycle, isn't it ? Proving how unwell you are ?
