Hi, my name is Dotty64!

PIP changes
Recently I had a telephone renewal however they concentrated mainly on the mobility element.
I wasn’t in need of any further monies to help me and I find it difficult to acknowledge my condition has worsened, subsequently I was happy when the outcome was the same as previous years - the low level PIP ( scoring 2 in most of the living element sections).
Now it seems I should have gone into more details which might have meant more money. I feel so disappointed and am worried as to when I will loss my PIP which was awarded for 10years. I am kicking myself for not discussing every little thing,
surely the idea of having a score meant you were eligible to now insist you have to score 4 or more in one area is ludicrous.
