Just passed my esa medical a million thanks to the team here. The atos doctor tried time and time again to trip me up re my esa 50 form by coming back to questions in a different way etc but as luck had it I had a support worker with me as a witness to hear my answers. The atos doctor was a bit put out by that but hey ho ! The point is that a third party heard my answers and I am positive that had a bearing on things !! ( as well as joining up here and filling in the form as per the advice here).
So I would say to anybody if it is at all possible go to the medical with a " witness "
Now this was the second time I passed the medical, the first time I passed was for 15 months , then to be reviewed etc . The letter telling me that im still in the work related group has no dates I will receive this until etc does that mean its for another 15 months ? Also will I need to do the work focused interviews again ?
The date of your next review is based on what the health professional reccomended in their IB85 medical report, so you could ask to be sent a copy of that.
You should only have to attend one further WFI.
Good luck,
Steve
