Hi there

Yes I get pip and have pbc, I have a few symptoms with pbc fatigue, brain fog, very painfull joints, but also have a lot of stomach problems. It’s a bit of a fight to get it. Mostly think I had it for my stomach problems on reading the report. Only got awarded the standard payment. And only given for 2 years. I had a Macmillan welfare officer to help with the form.
