Today I recieved a letter from the DWP informing I was no longer entitled to the ESA I have been claiming since I was diagnosed last may. There is a generalised assessment in which you have to score 15, i score 0 the fact that i could touch my toes on that day and can string together a coherent sentence qualifies me to go back to work.
Things have to change, although i was asked about my illness in great detail, and what challenges it brings to everyday life this apparently has no bearing on my ability to work.
I would like to know why a goverment department who will see you for 20 minutes to assess you cannot take the word of the highly skilled professionals who, assess and monitor your treatment and condition on a regular basis.
I am going to see my local MP as this seems such an unfair system of assessing your physical and emotional well being.
