HHi I have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and extremely high cholesterol levels,I did speak to the people who helped fill in my pip review forms about it and they said I don't need to tell pip as I'm in a review and it would be more forms etc,I hasn't changed anything yet and I was just wondering if I need to tell them or just leave it and wait for my review to be sorted?any advice will be great,thanks

PIP is not about diagnosis, so you don't need to tell them. The only time you need to tell PIP is if how your condition affects you changes.
