Just had my home visit PIP Assessment

Very nice man, who turned up late ( i should be awarded extra points for that!!)

I just so happening to be having a flare-up when he turned up.

Bloody hell my emotions were all over the place. 😭

Turned out to be a 2hr assessment.

Emotionally drained now.

Cuppa tea will perk me up. 😩

I really feel for you, I thought 1hr 10mins was too long.

I hope all of the stress isn't affecting your disease activity.

Good luck with your award!

Sounds as if he was thorough given the average assessment is a little over an hour, though it may be longer if it's done at home, my experience is at an assessment centre. I get what you mean about emotions, it dredges up memories of what used to be & the reality of the here & now.

Everything's crossed you receive what you need Ruth.

He was very thorough, very calming. He was very surprised to hear that i don't see a specialist of any sort, as my GP keeps telling me 'that there's nothing that can be done' even though i'm constantly asking!

He was also very concerned about how i cope, as i live by myself. And kept saying 'i really feel for you, it's sounds awful'. IT IS!!!

Ah well, just the waiting game now. Plus, have another MRI appointment on 18th November to see what's going on with my spine.

Happy Days 😕

He does sound awfully thorough and keen. Let's hope he comes up with the right conclusion. Everything crossed
