    They may need some more information from you regarding your conditions, or they could be calling about clarity on something.

    As above, no one will really know until they phone back. It will be a simple phone call I imagine, make sure to have your personal details handy (bank account and NI number) just in case.

    @leahxp I was nervous for all my calls, I dreaded every second, as someone with anxiety and Tourette’s knowing the agenda of a call is important to me so I understand your nervousness.

    Oh no! Was the tooth okay haha, if it makes you feel any better I ticked all the way through my assessment and then go told I was eligible for PIP, then I applied a second time and they saw from my work
    how bad I was and then rewarded me it. 

    I was the same, I regretting signing up and having to do it but I also remembered why I was doing it, because I need the extra help and extra money to get better help. 

    The calls calls can be soo daunting but you’ll get there one step at a time.
