Hi all. My problem pales into comparison to most disabilities but is on going and causes multiple problems, it's fibromyalgia, we get written off from the medical profession and basically have to deal with it. I have been awarded PIP and have blue badges now, can somebody tell me as I get this am I entitled to get disability or is this the same thing. Regards Trudi Baker
