I'm always being told I look well, which is kind of people to say, but wouldn't help at all in the ESA assessment interviews! I appreciate you taking the time to read this and thanks for making a comment. I wish you all the best with your own health and with the DWP!Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01227094168201370356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6281746045417073956.post-31859020671464962932012-10-07T16:51:29.263+01:002012-10-07T16:51:29.263+01:00just try getting the DWP to understand when they a...just try getting the DWP to understand when they are assessing your fitness for work and to receive ESA. my fatigue and weakness/dizziness is so bad i would struggle to work in an office for an hour.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6281746045417073956.post-42872003920269329222012-10-04T14:20:50.439+01:002012-10-04T14:20:50.439+01:00Paul - Thankyou for coming back again; and for wri...Paul - Thankyou for coming back again; and for writing this clear and helpful post which aids my understanding.<br />May you blessedly enabled for whatever He appoints for you today.<br /><br />Nan-oldsister(still in the kindergarten class of learning to "live in the carelessness of the Eternal Now" [ch. 2 of George MacDonald's 'Sir Gibbie'] )<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6281746045417073956.post-83355476856390559652012-10-01T22:50:39.196+01:002012-10-01T22:50:39.196+01:00A very good analogy, Linda.

I know fully where you are coming from, fatigue is one of the most poignant symptoms of MS and this describes exactly how i feel after about 2 hours from waking in the morning!!
