Welcome!
In the Community and on the site we have a lot of information which might be helpful.
These include a Benefits calculator, a PIP self test, Help filling in PIP forms, and a Benefits overview, PIp Appeals Tips, as well as an Ask a Benefits Advisor section.
Also, check out the PIP/DLA group where your question is posted to see other great discussions. Thanks for joining us!
ESA and PIP are different benefits with different criteria. You have to have a separate 'medical' (assessment) for each.
