I was diagnosed with Pulmonary fibrosis 2 yrs ago, my condition has worsened over the last 12 months to the point where I no longer feel capable of continuing to work.

Just seeking advice as to how to go about this

TThanks In advance

Hi @Pugsley2169, welcome to the community. Sorry to hear your condition has worsened, I hope you're doing as well as possible in the circumstances.

Are you claiming any benefits at the moment? If not, using a benefits calculator can be useful to work out what you might be able to claim if you stop work:

Scope have a page about stopping work that you might find useful too:

Stopping work and ill health | Disability charity Scope UK

Have your work been supportive so far?

Hi, sorry to hear about the diagnosis of pulmonary fibrosis, I have this same horrible disease also and had to give up work through ill health retirement so may be able to answer questions or point you in the right direction.

I was civil service so know how the process works inside out for this employer but many schemes are fairly similar, Can I ask who you work for so I can best help
