PIP is not concerned with what diseases of conditions you have, but is only concerned with what you can and can't do for yourself( bathing/showering, dressing, cooking, walking etc.) Have you already applied? If not, contact your local council and ask if they have a benefits adviser, if not then contact CAB, to help you fill in the forms.

Hi Dizzy112. Omg I have been diagnosed with the exact same things. The only difference I got Hashimoto’s at the age of 30 with my second pregnancy which is low acting thyroid two years later I thought they were cancer had lymph nodes and thyroid removed two years from that I got thyroid cancer again had more lymph nodes removed at the age of 50 I was just diagnosed with the other two ailments. It does get debilitating quite quickly I’m so sorry to everyone on this page who is experiencing these terrible things
