    Hi @rich04, welcome to the Scope Community. You aren't the only person with spinal stenosis the past few days, you aren't alone in this journey. I hope we can help you get the answers you're looking for!

    When you mention support group is that referring to the ESA group you are in?

    Hi @rich04 - & welcome to the community. The fact that you're receiving a benefit should not have any bearing on your employment. You should not just resign, rather discuss your options with your employer. Perhaps they can put 'reasonable adjustments' in place, even a different role. It may also be a good idea to contact ACAS:for advice: https://www.acas.org.uk/
