ive been diagnosed with chronic pain (fibromyalgia) arthritis, GERD and under active thyroid
I don’t go a day without being in pain. What’s the deal with disability for fibro sufferers. Some days I can’t move when I first wake it takes a good hour or so and a warm shower and about an hour just to get moving. Someone I know who has fibro doesn’t get pip but does have a blue badge!

Sorry to hear that you're in pain: I've moved your post to our chronic pain category, which you might like to have a look at. Many people with blue badges don't receive PIP: you can apply for them separately through your local authority. If this is something you're interested in, just let me know.
