Hi
I have just got over my recent interrogation for my PIP assessment. I was dreading this I know they need to ask you lots of questions but they could be a little sympathetic, every time I answered the questions I was interrupted with - but disregard the pain you are in and confirm you can do the particular task. When I explained that due to the pain I suffer, (Spinal Stenosis) along with other health problems she really didn't want to know, myself and my husband who attended with me were left speechless at times. It really makes you wander if they actually get any sort of bonus payment if they can win a case for the DWP. I am just waiting now for the brown envelope to say if I am successful or not, I have appealed twice before with DLA and won but not sure how this will go.

Feeling very low and disheartened.

Hopefully your fears will not be realised, Decisions appear to be taking about 2-3 weeks at the moment.
