Incap to ESA

I migrated from incap to ESA, i believe I was in the limited capability for work group after assessment.

I have contacted ESA they said I should be re-assessed from 07/11/2013 via an ESA form 3 which I have completed and returned.
There has been suggestion of a missing component of enhanced disability premium from ESA adviser where migrations were not assessed properly worth £16.40 per week.
Is this making any sense to anyone? I appreciate its confusing and I have really lived hand to mouth for the last 8-10 years in total but this would be a hefty sum if I have been underpaid my entitlement.
I have not been contacted or written to by ESA but they were very happy to explain over the phone and send the ESA3 out to me to 'trigger' the re-assessment process sooner rather than awaiting the letter.
I hope this makes sense, any advice I would appreciate, I have anxiety and struggling to settle and sleep with the worry of it all, even though this could be in my favour.
