Hi fibro friends Just had my call back from PIP re assessment long story short I wont be reconsidered on my assessment

[mazzer2]

I would like some advice I have been told if my condition has worsened which it has... I have to put in a new claim ......Is it really worth it. Im worried about my job having lots of time on sick .......financially I am struggling ......Have to admit im feeling pretty low at the minute...tea and sympathy is what i feel I need right now........xx

Hi Mazzer, sorry to hear your PIP application has been unsuccessful. I would certainly reapply if your health has worsened, at the end of the day all it will cost is time. I would suggest you contact your local citizens advice centre to help you complete the form this time. Good luck, Linda

Hi I failed the DLA even on appeal which I felt would sort me out. So I applied on the first day for PIP - after months I eventually got a positive decision - I can only speak from my own experience, but I would re-apply & keep on doing so until you get the support you need. All the best, Eddie

[mazzer2 in reply to Newbigginboy]

[mazzer2 in reply to Newbigginboy]

Hi Mazzer

Hope the tea and biscuits helped

Like the others here I would definitely NOT give up.

I know the form filling is a bit of a bind, especially when a lot feels like you are repeating yourself.

I have an appeal in for the support group. I feel I have to get that as when DLA changes to PIP for me I will not get it. I am sure if I stay in WRAG they will say I don't have enough points.

I have middle rate care and there doesn't seem to be a category for that with PIP.

So, keep appealing, they expect you to lose interest and make their job easier. Don't give them that satisfaction.

Fingers crossed for you

Xx

One thing I have learned over the years is that worry/stress only makes the pain worse, try to take some time to relax, you will cope much better for it. Gentle hugs.
