Hi @thedarkknight welcome to the community, I am sorry to hear you have had such a tough time. It can take a few weeks to hear about your PIP decision, if you are concerned you can call them on the number on your paperwork.
Best of luck to you, just remember that if the decision isnt in your favour, that we can support you in the appeal process.
Take a look around the community, we have so many friendly members who have been through the PIP process.Scope
