ESA Result

A BIG thank you to all of you on here, especially the mods and admin team!

I won my appeal at tribunal yesterday. 6 points to 15.... The judge stopped it after 1 question from the doctor, once it was apparent that I was actually more confused than the bumbling doctor - who had less of a clue than I did. Was in there only about 15 mins.
At decision time she said there was no point in continuing as I had reached the number of points needed.

A HUGE thank you to my "representative". You know who you are, if you read this

Also I did a tribunal a few weeks back as a representative as we won that one too!!

I hope this is some inspiration for everyone to keep going with it, especially to my fellow ME/CFS and Fibromyalgia sufferers. You really can get thru it!!

ESA down DLA to go.

Thanks again

Hi Ria

Congratulations for winning your appeal. Thanks for letting us know and good luck with your DLA.

That's brilliant, Ria.

Thanks for posting so enthusiastically about your success. It encourages me, waiting for my appeal also with ME/CFS.

I hope you continue to enjoy your glow of satisfaction for many weeks!

Andy.

Great news that we all like to hear.
Really pleased for you.

Thanks for letting us know. We hear a lot about people's concerns since people come here for help, but I think it always helps for people to be reminded that it is possible to get the benefits to which people are entitled.

Well done Ria - it's always good to hear that claimants are being awarded ESA & especially so for those of us with ME/CFS & Fibromyalgia. It gives hope that this truly debilitating & disabling illness is begining to be taken more seriously.
Best wishes
