Thanks Gordon,
Just to ensure that i have understood you correctly, when the ESA50 form is being filled, under the relevant descriptor i can state "as clearly stated by GP "that
" i qualify for S/G or a medical would be detremental to my health.
Thanks.

Nothing on this board constitutes legal advice - always consult a professional about specific problems

It's your ESA50, or at least your husband's, you are entitled to write whatever you want in it
If you and your husbands GP believe he meets one or more of the Support Group criteria, then you can state this on the form, the worst that the Decision Maker can do is disagree with you.

Thanks ever so much Gordon, you have just confirmed exactly what i was thinking.
Atleast if i put things which i feel are relevant on the form and if D/M decides to ignore them, then atleast i can refer back to these if i need to appeal/ challenge a decision and would have proof that certain important things were ignored.

Just a quick thought. Gordon your reply stating that we could write whatever we wanted (don't tempt me LOL)
could i send a copy of husbands DLA mobility HRM from year 2000 to indefinate to date with the physical descriptor.
I know some members have done this, but have had recent awards, whereas husbands is quite a while back!!!

You can include whatever evidence you/he believe is relevant to his claim.
Remember, the criteria for DLA HRM are less stringent that those for the ESA Mobility test.

Great. Copy of HRM paperwork will be supplied as supporting evidence.
However, how familiar are Atos and D/M's with medical terminology???
One of the reports i am submitting as supporting evidence states husband has cervical and lumbar spondylosis and gives a detailed account in medical terminology of the affected disks.
I needed GP to give a clear understanding of report. So am wondering how will they use it to make a decision!!!
