Well I've just come home from having my ESA assessment,I must say the lady I had was lovely.Went better than I thought I didn't have to do any activities ,and she said she had enough evidence so I didn't answer many questions.Its just a waiting game now,will hear apparently in a few weeks.I am mentally and physically exhausted now :-)

Hello Susie My name is Connie00 thank you for sharing this post is nice to know that these assessments are nothing to be afraid off I am sorry that you feel so worn out But I am sure it will be worth it, mine also went very well, the lady I saw was really kind and understanding.

Glad it's all over, for now. If you live in the UK ring next week to ask for the assessment report to be sent to you, this will give you some idea what the decision is likely to be because they mostly go with the report.
I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help. -
Who do I phone is it DWP or EsA and just ask for my report is it?

ESA which is part of DWP

I don't know if I messaging right,I open a new discussion every time Is this wrong.Also could you give me phone number of who I phone for report is it the one on my letter I received telling me to go for assessment :-)

Don't have have to start a new discussion everytime you have a question. You can ask it on another thread that you created.No, the number on the appointment letter is for the health assessment providers. You need to ring DWP/ESA and this is the number. 0800 169 0310
