It sounds like you have got ESA but have been put into the WRAG. Group and not the Support group . If you are in the WRAG group you have to attend the job centre for work related activity you are determined as sick now but may be fit for work in time .. In the support group you do not have at attend the job centre... If as many members on here feel they have been placed in this group wrongly it is advised you appeal this decision ...

Hopefully members who have more experience of this will post and offer more advice

Thanks. I couldn't go to any of them as I'm really nervous of strangers. Plus I have fibromyalgia arthritis and tending hospital about large bone growths on my knee and leg. So I cudnt even travel. It's worried me sick and I haven't slept thinking I have to go sit with strangers I don't know. The letter has confused me as they obviously know all this or I deffo wud not got on sick ??? I might have to get someone to ring them see what I can do.
