I had my esa assessment a few days ago. Took all my hospital letters. She said she wasn't doing a examination due to seeing me in pain. This fried my head coz I don't trust these people. Told lies in the past. I'm just in limbo now waiting on the outcome. Fingers crossed x

Try not to worry. If the worst comes to the worst you can say that she did not even examine you etc. Was this person a nurse or paramedic btw?

Hugs xxxx

Not a clue, she started off saying she had my doctors reports, I never agreed to this by the way, asked a couple of crazy questions then said about the medical not happening coz she see I'm on back pain. I'm not sure who or what she was. X

Same happened to me in my assessment. Think with fibro patients now they know you can sometimes do the movements but it’s painful so don’t want to make you to increase your pain. My assessment said that to me and I was awarded support group. Fingers crossed for you xx

Totally agree. She should have identified herself. ATOS slated in the Press. It is an IT Company.

I didn't have an examination either abd was awarded it so try to worry.

My last assessor lied through histeeth even made stuff up so this time i was annoyed before i even got there but it worked out. I was pleased to finally be listened too it was a relief n i think you will be relieved too.
