At the moment I am on contribution Esa waiting on a medical assessment from Dwp my Dr told me that he wrote them a letter I'm assuming that they requested information on my condition is this usual for them to do this.

Hi,It's rare but it can happen. Good luck.

Hi poppy thanks for your reply would you know or anyone else have any idea why they would request this if it's rare.

More information about your condition was most likely needed.

Thank you !

I have just spoke to Dwp and have been told they have all the information they need and have made a decision and no need for a medical assessment so just have to wait and see now to what group they out me in.
I'm getting dizzy between pip and dwp lol -
Fingers crossed for the outcome you're hoping for, @Tilly1!

Thank you pippa hopefully, 2 decsions I'm waiting on now it's like watching paint dry! I've also asked pip for the assessment report on my mandatory reconsideration. Just a case of waiting now.
