Placed in the support group without any medical

Hi

I just wanted to say a massive thank you to this site I would never have been able to fill out the esa50 form without all your help.
I was today placed in the support group without any medical.
I followed all your advice and I think it very important to give examples of how the illness affects you..
Its important we all stick together regardless of what group we get in and try to help each other through this dreadful unfair progress.

Best Regards

That is great news! Thank you for letting us know - and for your kind words about this site

Hi sb,

That is really good news !!!!

Thank you for your kind words regarding B&W.

Yes, we must all stick together and help as much as we can.

If you wish to know the recommended length of your SG award before you will be reassessed, (The Prognosis) you can request a copy of your ESA85A Medical Report, over the phone, if you did not have a "medical", or The ESA85 if you did.

There should also be an LT54.

If you have any problems obtaining these you can make a formal written request, using a SAR :

The maximum prognosis in The SG that we are aware of is 3 years, hopefully you will have such a prognosis.
