    but the medicals arent for the same thing!
    an ESA medical (is supposed to) see if someone is able to work, the DLA is for care /mobility needs.
    you can quite easily need care making food' lifting pans safely' and being flexible enough to dress yourself)
    just because someone has care needs doesnt necessarily make them unfit for 'any' type of work.
    to hold them both at the same time would be too confusing as the criteria is totally different.

    i agree with what you're saying but, in practice, it would be far, far too complicated.
  • Thanks everyone I have been to the doctors this morning because I was having problems with my breathing, I have got pleurisy yet again.

    I will let u know how my medical goes tomorrow gonna go to bed and see if I can get a little sleep.
    Thanks again
    Love and best wishes

  • Just an update had my medical, the doctor rang to say that he would be 45 minutes early, the doctor was very nice, asked loads of questions, it took a while but I am glad it is over.
    Be glad when I know the results.

    Best wishes
