hi im back for now but finally got my letter from tribunal today.got it re-instated with alot of hard ring ring ring every single day.and now been told got my hearing for my e.s.a on 1st august.

absolutely quaking in my boots.i know im ill so tomoz gonna get up real early and go to get some advice,and then go and find all my sick notes back dating years and then book a appointment with my doctor to see if he will help us with a letter explaining how il i am most days?

dunno where its being held yet letter on way out/?

i feel sick to my tummy so could be back to square one if lose this.

so im gonna go armed with loads and loads of info,and explain also im a nervous wreck has im going to be going backwards and forwards to court at least once a month about my kids custody hearing.

thats enough to send you over the edge has it is.let alone all this extra stress.

sick to death of this constant battling and worrying.

all we do is stress,worry life shouldnt be like that.

i used to be like a free spirit and have a white witch has a friend but im finding myself more ratty,more strained and haggard looking now.

get the druggies back to work not us.

so any advice right now to help us would really really help.

thanks for ready yet again.

the pain in bum is in the building.lol.

Hi Sammy.

I have been following up my tribunal for ESA. at the moment they have no idea when mine will be. On Friday i sent some information which should help. The information i sent is that i have had my DLA reinstated and back dated, i have sent a letter from my rhuemy explaining that i have FM and i have 15 out of the 18 trigger points, i also sent a letter from my doctor, who explains that i cannot walk far and some of the accidents i have had. So i would say get as much info as possible. ask all the doctors and specialists that you see or have seen. Have you seen anyone at the job centre yet? as they might help you as well, mine has.

gentle hugs

Mandy

Sammy,

My Tribunal Hearing is also in a couple of weeks after waiting for over 2 years! At the moment I am that stressed out with worry I am having one flare up after another, and I agree with you Sammy...if I was a drug addict or an alcaholic I would get financial help! But instead we get stressed out to the hilt with all this beauracratic red tape. I have an agency applying for me and do hope they will work it for me!

I wish you all the best with it and take care!!

Sammy, you're going through a really tough time at the moment but things will get better. Stick with it as best you can. Get as much evidence, paperwork from your Doctor etc., to help you with your hearing. The more information you have backing up your case the better. Use the links that Chris has posted above, they are very useful and help you through the process.

Tackle one thing at a time so you don't feel too bogged down. Sometimes we tend to look at everything and it feels too much. You will get through this. We are here to help and support you. Wishing you the best of luck. Feel free to pm me any time if you need to. :)

Take care Sammy. :) :)
