    Hi @kass, it might be best to wait for a decision before you do anything more. Sometimes decision makers will go against the report, and you may find that you get the award you're hoping for anyway.

    But if you're not happy with the result, you can challenge it by asking for a mandatory reconsideration. There's a bit of information about challenging benefits decision on the Scope website if you'd like to have a read:

    Appealing a benefits decision | Disability charity Scope UK

    Hopefully you'll get the result you're looking for but if you are disappointed by the decision it's not the end. Lots of members have been through appeals so you won't be alone if you have any questions about it 😊

    I hope your decision comes through quickly!

    Did you mention your stoma and hernias when you first filled in your application for PIP?

    It's still probably best to wait and see what the decision is and then go from there 😊
