Assessment report

Good morning everyone.
I had my pip phone assessment on April 6th and I was in such a worried state that I forgot all about recording it.
I requested the assessment report and received it yesterday, I wish I hadnt!
Quite a few things have been added by the assessor that I definitely didn't say. I worked out 9 points for daily living and 0 for mobility. I lost points because I don't take 8 co codamol a day so I can't be in that much pain? I have quite alot of medical conditions and the GPs report didn't list my depression and anxiety even though they can see I'm prescribed meds for both. again that was stated that it can't be affecting me so badly
And how can they possibly say that I didn't sound like I was in pain over the telephone? Am I supposed to wail in pain?
Sorry I just needed a rant, I don't think I have the energy to go to MR as I'm happy with anything right now. The whole process has made me ill 🥺

Hello 1cequeenIf the decision maker goes with the report then you will have standard daily living but you will not be awarded the mobility component of PIP because you need to score 8 points or more for moving aroung or planning and following a journey.1cequeen said:I lost points because I don't take 8 co codamol a day so I can't be in that much pain?
