Esa pip

Hi all im confused about this situation.
I was on esa until a couple of months ago i went for a assessment and scored 0 points anyway i did a MR and sent in medical evidence and they awarded me 6 points. So still not past.
So now i have im waiting for an appeal. The woman on the phone said she would transfer me to jsa to make a new claim so whilst on the phone to jsa i had loads of problems because to claim you have to be fit to work, so i got a catch 22 situation i had to say i was fit for work even tho i wasn't. So now ive struggled to get down the job centre to sign on and have to do this once a week. So because i get PIP i get extra money on my jsa a disability premiums. So if i claim the assessment rate would i lose this and still have to go down the job centre. Thanks
