Have just had a phone call telling me my medical for ESA is to be on Bank Holiday Monday at 9am. I know I am lucky that my GP has arranged for this to be at home but the thought of it still fills me with terror,my heart has been racing since the phone rang. Any advice?

From a practical point of view always remember that when you are asked about your level of incapacity etc base your answers on how you feel on your worse possible day. For example, if you are asked if you feel able to work for 3 hours a day even though you may feel you have days when this would be possible if this would not be possible on your worse day then make sure you answer that you would be unable to do this.

You may be tempted to be stoical etc but you need to make sure that you put across the full extent of your incapacity during the interview.
