Today as been quite a day had my PiP assessment 2 hours in all.
Time will tell how things go .. but to be fair ATOS HCP was professional and quite humain .. but during my assesment a was telling HCP about my condition and all this chronic lung sepsis and how i was having problems.
Anyway never in my life did a think chronic lung sepsis could affect your brain.
Today i was quite upset as more HUMAIN ATOS HCP did this test given what i had been saying to them about my condition.
Cognitive subtraction and finger ability test.
A was surprised shocked when i failed test .. like how can you forget to do basic subtractions. but i did and just could not do it
Don't be upset - it certainly hasn't affected your intelligence, ability to investigate complex details and other capabilities. I think you're brilliant.
Anyway, who needs to use subtraction - calculators are cheap!!
Sounds like it was a good assessment so keep your chin up and smile.
Hi 123podmore cheers yer test was part of assessment and its more a recondition of my problems failing test .. still have to wait and see what dwp say tho
That must have been a shock but tests are just that. You are a bright intelligent man who has an eye for detail and the ability to decipher complex issues. Take care and take heed - remember how amazingly capable you are! With love TAD xx
yes this must have been a shock, but off course there will be varying levels of any impairment, and as tadow says, you seem a bright intelligent young man, this should enable you better than most, to manage better, but no doubt this must have been a shock to you, take care my friend and again its worth remembering how capable you are,, kindest regards jimmy

Bless you Daz, you are still doing well by the sound of things and are still able to investigate your problems so it can't be all bad. You take care and wishing you well as always. xxxx
Fingers crossed for you DAZ Have you gone for the full mobility PIP? Got consultant confirm RLD for me and 12.5% drop when flat. Just had some more tests to look at more recent Xrays. I have asked for letter to doc to be cc to me as well.
The link just sends me to the start page of medscape?
Hi Daz they did this test with me when I had my medical with Atos I think its a standard test. Good luck with getting your benefit I do hope it comes through for you I thought Atos were not doing medicals anymore ?.x
Not a really, real doc? My, oh, my. Whatever next! Glad you got it over with Daz and like others have said, you are obviously a man of intelligence and wit. Power to the people.
Yeah, I can see why you were shocked Daz, must have sent you reeling for a bit.
I'd better read the link to find out what it's all about.
I think something's happened to the language part of my brain. Noticing it more & more lately and really, to be perfectly honest don't think I have serious lung issues so I can't blame that.
It seriously upsetting when you find something's missing.
Good luck with you claim Daz
