Hi All
I'm in the ESA WRAG group and claim for my partner and children. My better half has recently started to experience severe knee and joint pain , leaving her unable to get up un aided or walk very far unaided , she has to lay on the floor with her legs out straight , as sitting on the settee or anywhere that she has to have her knees bent causes her excruciating pain. When she walks she is like a little old lady hobbling along very slowly
My Question should she put in a claim for ESA or PIP ? On doing this would it effect my ESA ? ie stop it because the claim is in my name , is she allowed to claim ESA as well as me ? My anxiety level is going through the roof worrying that it might somehow stop my esa etc and put us back on the assessment rate
Sorry for the long winded explanation
Thanks Steve
