Hi. I am sixty nine yrs old receiving pip with light touch reviews, on list for a hip replacement probably get it next year, got severe osteoarthritis arthritis in both hips and knees as well as stenosis of the spine ( had laminectomy surgery ) also profoundly deaf, so not expecting this new hip to work miracles, but do I need to tell dwp that I have had it done. Thank you all..

    Hi @crikey44. You only need to tell PIP if your support needs change.
