I have amended the one message and added a note to the other one where you quoted it.

Thank you all for your support , I am extremely grateful. I will try not to worry too much about what is happening next. It will happen anyway, won't it?

Hi there again

Just an update to the question of whether a sick note is required after being placed in the WRA group, well I just gor a letter requesting a new sick note, as I thought. I rang the DWP and of course they said that I don't need to send one, but to say I am confused is a huge understatement. This just causes more hassle.

I was told on the phone this morning that I will be required to go for a second medical after Christmas, that this is the cycle of dealing with this group. Why would they waste so much time, effort not to mention funding for these wastes of time?

Anyone have anything to add? Is this true, have I really got to through that ordeal again?
Thanks for reading!

More info:

Just got a return call from the ESA dept of DWP, who stated that I did not have to send in a sick note, BUT, I will be receiving a new ESA50 in the next day or so, fill it in send it back immediately, then I will be required to attend another medical on the back of that.
