pip change of circumstances

Jennyryan78

pip change of circumstances I already receive high rate daily living and low rate mobility for sever mental health x

The past 18 months I’ve had a bad back plus a funny leg I just put it down to sciatica x

Fast Forward to feb 2026 were I could no longer take the pain I went to the doctor as I can’t physically bend sleep walk wipe etc x

I was then sent for an emergency mri

The findings was L4 L5 14 mm disc extrusion with server spinal stenosis

Basically lost all feeling in left leg and my nerves are completely crushed x

So basically it made sense why am having no feeling in my leg and not being able to do basic care for my self and it’s made my whole mental health completely worse x

My question is does anyone receive high rate mobility for these findings including my inability to walk function normal x

Thanks Jenny

Hi @Jennyryan78 and a warm welcome to the community from me!

That sounds very painful, I'm sorry to hear you're in a lot of pain.

It definitely sounds like you may be entitled to the higher rate of the mobility element, here is some information reporting a change to PIP which i hope will be helpful😊
