PIP Assessment

Well had my assessment this morning and was pleasantly surprised how lovely my assessor was (Capita). Although she did say 45 mins, it went over and took a good hour to complete. Basically asked me how my fibro and other ailments affected me on a daily basis, all that I had put on my form really.....just went into more detail. Physical exam was done and dusted in less than a minute but saying that a lot of the movements I couldn't do without pain and she told me not to force things and cause extra pain to myself. She did say I did have a lot of problems with my health so hopefully things will lean towards me keeping my benefit, do hope so but just have to wait and see now, 6-8 weeks was quoted to me.........fingers crossed!
