Hi STEVE51 Thanks for getting back to me.Just wanted a bit of advice regarding esa.With having stage 4 copd I have found it life changing.i cant do anything without getting out of breath and I mean anything.I currently get pip enhanced for mobility but nothing for care. I got 7 points for care and you need 8 to get the care element.. Iam really struggling staying in work .
