Heck no!
I'm currently on ESA due to spinal surgery I had in October. I've been given the ok by my consultant to TTC, but he said I should not go back to work just yet as I shouldn't sit for long periods of more than 30 minutes and no bending or lifting. DWP think I can go back to work and my consultant is a liar, as is my GP for signing me off sick, so they said as of 2 weeks ago I was no longer entitled to ESA. I've appealed and was told I would still get paid, but lo and behold today I've not been paid. Rang them and they said they still have to decide if my appeal is valid. Bloody morons. They're ignoring the fact I had surgery and are trying to push me back into work faster than I should go, and if I go back to work now I risk my back healing incorrectly which will cause more issues down the line
WTF? What a load of tw*ts! That's really terrible. I so so hope they sort it out for you soon, must be so stressful. No way should you be back in work til you are 100% mended, and if they can't see that they are totally wrong!
