From ESA support group to carers allowance

edited October 2021 in Benefits and financial support
My husband has been in the support group since he was diagnosed with bowel cancer 2years ago. He has to go for his back to work assessment on Monday. Before he was diagnosed he was my full time carer. Apart from some toilet issues which can see him on the toilet 6-8 times a day, some times with urgency, he is almost fully recovered. 
We are just wondering if anybody knows what benefits to claim if he goes back to caring for me
I am severely disabled due to complicated diabetes,peripheral nueropathy and herniated discs.
