     So my concern is if I was to go for another work assessment and fail it would I get sdp back ?

    Unfortunately not because once it erodes and you lose it then it won't be awarded again in the future.

    Well that just sucks doesn't it .I don't even know how long I have the lcwra for as there was no mention of it so it is a worry they can take it back as quick as I got it .

    LCWRA is an ongoing award until a new decision says otherwise. You can be reassessed anytime from 3 months but there’s huge backlogs so you’ll likely be left alone for quite a while.

    Sadly that does indeed suck. On the plus side you are at least still getting a little more money that you previously got.

    Would rather have kept my transitional protection payment than have lcwra yeah I do get a little bit extra for now but I do have a lot more to lose .

    I can see why you might think that.
