Hi @elainey60 and welcome! That definitely sounds like a possibility. I'd suggest having a read up on the PIP form and what you need to include. Here's a link to a page on our website that has some more detailed information about the process that might be helpful - Personal Independence Payment (PIP) | Disability charity Scope UK.

PIP does NOT focus on the specific diagnosis of your health condition, but how your illnesses or disabilities affect your ability to carry out everyday activities and perform daily living activities, such as preparing food, eating, washing, dressing, and managing your health.
