Well i didnt get PIP. Surprise, surprise. Although i did get 6 points, which is better than none i suppose! Not sure what to do. Whether to appeal or not?

I will put in the reconsideration this week. Im actually amazed i got any points! But plenty of bullshit in my assessment! I think they tried to give none but my medical notes go against it. I will fight it. Like you said. Ive nothing to lose xx

I need it too. Im in absolute agony. My zoladex has fully wore off now. It didnt do a lot, my endo was still active, but now its real bad. My left side is massive. I look like im having half a baby my cyst is that big after my last period. I will certainly give it a good go! And thanks. Xx

Hi this gov is sh*t its all wrong you should defo appeal. I was talking to my mum and my sister in law the other day and I said how can they assess someone with endo properly one day you could be ok ish the next day or even next hour you could be on the floor in agony. I've burnt my self only a little bit on the bottom of my leg and my foot as I was making a brew and got the shooting pain up me and major pain and I went to hold myself not thinking and dropped the kettle boiling water went everywhere it could've been a lot worse its happened before with my tablet I dropped it on my foot because I had pain and again went to hold my self its just instinct that when your hurting you hold where is hurting. It's a horrendous thing to have and I don't think that anyone can give you a proper assessment unless your in bad pain on the day it can be dangerous.

APPEAL it.

Take care Tia xx
