    Hi Stephen,

    Sorry not much help as I don't know the honest answer. It seems daft sending you for another so soon but this government is daft. All I can say is prepare yourself and maybe request a home visit for it.
    All the best

    HI Stephen

    You think if you tick yes they will be more likely or less likely to ask you to another????

    Or are you worried they will 'pull' the other file?

    If you are allowed to l think Vonski is right you could always ask for a home visit much better for you as you can have someone there with you and all your bits and peices around you to help you

    Love

    sorry not much help Steve but these people do tend to do the unexpected... lol so we would think no so i guess yes it could well be possible... spending more government money on unnessecary stuff.....
    love and hugs

    With just winning my appeal for ESA, I really did not want to go to another medical with the "you must be lieing" from the doctor or however does the examination..the whole thing is very stressfull knowing your need the extra support and you get diddley squat without battle after battle after battle..

    we will just have to see if I have to get back on the merry go round.

    thanks for the info peeps.
