Good news but wary

Hi there. Exactly one month ago I sent off my ESA50 and prepared for a long wait. (The last one was over 4 months.) So I was shocked to recieve a phone call just eight days later for an appointment for a medical the following week. I was in a terrible state. I attended the medical and the nurse said she hadn't seen my form and I would have to tel her in detail about my condition. This made me so upset and angry that I was barely coherent and was sure I would have to appeal as the interview went very badly. I had taken so much time to fill in the form with as much detail as possible so I was totally upset and was convinced I had failed the assesment. Today, just 9 days later I got the brown envelope and to my delight I have been placed in the Support group! I am so grateful to the moderators on this site for all thier help. Has anyone ever been assesed so rapidly? (Sorry if the post is long)

That's really great news ms !!!

Thanks for letting us all know, and for your kind comments regarding B&W.

Yours is definately one of the quicker decisions after sending the ESA50 in.
